Deeper Love
Corenell feat Ann Bailey Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well, it's been three days
And I haven't heard a single word
But my message lights are blinking
Everyday when I get home from work

Hesitation then I hang up
And I'm hoping it was you who phoned me
So I'm gonna change my greeting
To a message that is for you only

I wanna make it clear
Next time you call here
Leave a message Juanita
Let me know that you called
Tell me how I can reach ya
Is there hope after all?

My love, the tears we cried won't be in vain
Honey, I'll take all the blame
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do
Leave a message, Juanita
And I'll crawl back to you

I called up your momma
Even talked to all your friends
But they wasn't talking
And they told me not to call again

I said, "I understand"
But would somebody help me please
If you see Juanita could you
Tell her that I'm on my knees

I wanna make it right
I miss her everyday and night
Leave a message Juanita
Let me know that you called
Tell me how I can reach ya
Is there hope after all?

My love, the tears we cried won't be in vain
Honey, I'll take all the blame
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do
Leave a message, Juanita
And I'll crawl back to you

Leave a message, Juanita
And I'll crawl back to you




Leave a message, Juanita
And I'll crawl back to you

Overall Meaning

The song "A Deeper Love" by Corenell is a melancholic ballad that tells the story of a man who's desperately trying to reach out to his lost love, Juanita. The first verse sets the scene by establishing the length of time he has been without communication from her—he hasn't heard from her in three days. Although he's still hopeful, he's hesitant to call because he's unsure if she was the one who tried to reach him. The chorus manifests his desire to reconnect with Juanita and how the time of being apart has been hard on him.


In the second verse, it becomes evident that he's exhausted all other avenues of trying to reach her. He called her mother and friends, but they weren't helpful in providing any information on her whereabouts. He pleads with anyone who might know where she is to tell her that he's trying to get in touch with her. The repetition of the refrain "Leave a message, Juanita, and I'll crawl back to you" highlights the depth of his feelings and how he's willing to do anything to get back with her.


Overall, the song conveys a sense of longing, desperation, and the desire to reconcile past mistakes to be with the one you love. It's a moving testament to the lengths humans go to try and reconnect with the people who matter most to them.
