Dramatics and the Dells Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Got in my way, got into my world
Now you're telling me, you got to go
It would have been alright about a thousand kisses ago
But now you got me loving you
Now you've got me hooked
Now you got me wanting you
You came along and feel me so
I've never felt satisfaction before
Now it's not so simple just to let you go
But it would have been easy a thousand kisses ago
But now you got me loving you
Oh, now you've got me hooked
Now you got me wanting you
A little bit of your love was all it took
Oh, but now you got me loving you
Now you've got me hooked
Oh, now you got me wanting you
A little bit of your love was all it took
That's all it took, baby, just a little bit
That's all it took, baby, just a little bit
That's all it took, baby, just a little bit
That's all it took, baby, just a little bit
That's all it took, baby, just a little bit
That's all it took, baby, just a little bit
That's all it took, baby, just a little bit
That's all it took, baby, just a little bit
That's all it took, baby, just a little bit
That's all it took, baby, just a little bit
That's all it took, baby, just a little bit
That's all it took, baby, just a little bit
That's all it took, baby, just a little bit
That's all it took, baby, just a little bit
The lyrics to Dramatics and the Dells's song "Loving You" express the singer's realization and surrender to the power of love. The song begins by acknowledging that the girl in question has disrupted the singer's life and found her way into his world, but now she is telling him that she has to go. However, the singer reflects that it would have been acceptable to say goodbye a long time ago, before they became deeply involved.
Despite their initial resistance, the girl's love has now taken hold of the singer. He admits that he is hooked and desires her intensely, and all it took was a little bit of her love to make him feel satisfied like never before. The singer finds it difficult to let her go now, as the connection between them is no longer simple. He realizes that parting ways would have been easy in the early stages of their relationship, back when only a thousand kisses ago, but now, he is completely in love with her.
In the repetition of the phrase "just a little bit," the lyrics emphasize that even though it may seem like a small amount of love, it has had a profound impact on the singer. This illustrates the transformative power of love, as it has the ability to change one's perspective and desires.
Overall, "Loving You" explores the theme of love's ability to enthrall and captivate, causing the singer to want and need the other person despite any initial reservations.

Alvin C. Romer
Both groups had the same Producer, Don Davis and it was inevitable that somewhere down the line that they'd collaborate on a collective venue such as this. Marvin Jun I r, LJ Reynolds, Johnnie Carter and Ron Banks -- what a stupendous effort! Rest in peace, Lenny Mayes (Dramatics); Ron Banks (Dramatics); Marvin Junior (Dells); and Johnnie Carter (Dells).
