Good Love
DEVolution and Amy Pearson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tonight I’m closing the door,
Don't need that heart ache no more
Take my stress out on the floor,
I’m letting go now, hmm
I know it’s different this time,
Back in control of my life,
Not holding on to goodbyes
I've let you go now!

I need that good love,
That makes my heart stop,
I want some right now,
Tonight give me some good love, good love!

You wanna take hold of me,
My heart it don't come for free,
Won't take nothing but that good good good love,
Don’t need you wasting my time,
Or playing games with my mind,
Just wanna find me some good, good, good love!
You wanna take hold of me,
My heart it don't come for free,
Won't take nothing but that good good good love,
Don’t need you wasting my time,
Or playing games with my mind,
Just wanna find me some good, good, good love!
Back in control of my life!
Back in control of my life!
Back in control of my life!
Back in control of my life!

I'm not alone, no I'm free,
Got an opportunity,
To make this world work for me,
And I will take it! Ooh!
I won't keep nothing around,
That’s only bringing me down,
My life belongs to me now,
And I ain’t gon' waste it

I need that good love,
That makes my heart stop,
I want some right now,
Tonight give me some good love, good love!
So put your hands up,
If you won't give up,
Until you get some,
Ooh some of that good love, good love!
Back in control of my life, life, life, life!

You wanna take hold of me,
My heart it don't come for free,
Won't take nothing but that good good good love,
Don’t need you wasting my time,
Or playing games with my mind,
Just wanna find me some good, good, good love!
You wanna take hold of me,
My heart it don't come for free,
Won't take nothing but that good good good love,
Don’t need you wasting my time,




Or playing games with my mind,
Just wanna find me some good, good, good love!

Overall Meaning

The song Good Love HD* by DEVolution feat. Amy Pearson is all about letting go of past heartaches and reclaiming control of one's own life. The singer of the song is in a place where they no longer want or need to hold onto the pain caused by someone they were once involved with. Instead, they are focused on finding good, genuine love that makes their heart race with excitement. The theme of control is prevalent throughout the song, as the singer asserts that they're back in control of their life and refuse to waste time on anyone or anything that doesn't bring them joy.


The chorus of the song is centered around the idea of good love- the kind of love that makes you feel like you're on top of the world. There is an urgency to the way the lyrics are delivered, with the repeated line "Tonight give me some good love, good love" invoking the idea that the singer wants to find this type of love as soon as possible. They don't want to waste time on anything less than what they deserve.


The bridge of the song is where we see the singer fully embracing their newfound freedom and opportunity. They won't keep anything around that's bringing them down, and their life belongs to them now. The final repetition of "Back in control of my life" is an anthem of empowerment, suggesting that the singer is ready to take on the world and find the love they deserve.
