Tell Me That You Love Me
England Dan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Through the velvet shadows of my dreams
Many times, I wished you were near
Through the darkness as it came but it seems
That you, you never said what I needed to hear
Just tell me you love me
Whisper words I so long to hear
Let this time not be borrowed
If you tell me you love me
It would lead a way to your heart
Through the mirrors of silence, you love me
Quietly, I've waited
For the memory born of our first kiss
Patiently, I've waited
For the moment you would take me to word
That I, I've never seen that world before
Just tell me you love me
Whisper words I so long to hear
Let this time not be borrowed
Let it be ours to share
If you tell me you love me
It would lead a way to your heart
Through the mirrors of silence, you love me, you love me
The song "Just Tell Me You Love Me" by England Dan & John Ford Coley is a simple yet heartfelt plea for love and affection. The lyrics describe a longing for someone to be close and to express their feelings of love. The singer speaks of their dream world where their love is present, but in reality, they are left alone in the darkness. The song is a poignant reminder of how important it is to express our feelings to those we love.
The chorus is the essence of the song, expressing the need for the other person to speak the words that will unlock the singer's heart. The lyrics hold a certain vulnerability, as the singer waits with bated breath for the other person's response. The use of repetition in the chorus ("Just tell me you love me, Whisper words I so long to hear") reinforces this longing for love and affection.
The second verse is an extension of the first, with the singer waiting patiently for the other person to declare their love. The singer reminds the other person that they have never experienced a love like this before, and hopes that their love is not "borrowed" but something that they can share and own together. The line "Through the mirrors of silence, you love me" is a powerful metaphor that suggests that love is not always expressed through words, but can be felt without sound.
In conclusion, "Just Tell Me You Love Me" is a tender and vulnerable love song that speaks to the universality of love, relationships, and the need for communication. It is a reminder that although love can be painful and uncertain, it is always worth the risk.

Many times, I wished you were here
I have imagined you by my side multiple times
Through the velvet shadows of my dreams
In my subconscious mind, I see you beautifully
Many times, I wished you were near
I have wished you were closer to me quite often
Through the darkness as it came but it seems
Despite challenges that have come, it doesn't seem like you're there for me
That you, you never said what I needed to hear
You never uttered the words that I longed to hear from you
Just tell me you love me
I just want to hear those three magic words from you
Whisper words I so long to hear
Say the sweet nothings that my heart has been yearning for
Let this time not be borrowed
I hope that this moment is not temporary, and it's real
Let it be ours to share
I want to share this moment with you, just the two of us
If you tell me you love me
In the event that you confess your love for me
It would lead a way to your heart
It would show me a path to touch your heart
Through the mirrors of silence, you love me
Even though you haven't expressed it through words specifically, I feel like you love me
Quietly, I've waited
I have been silent and patiently waiting all along
For the memory born of our first kiss
I recall the memories of our first kiss and hold them dear to me
Patiently, I've waited
I have waited patiently for a long time
For the moment you would take me to word
For the moment you would confirm your love to me
That I, I've never seen that world before
It's a world I have never experienced, and I am eager to enter it with you
Through the mirrors of silence, you love me, you love me
As I look closely through the quiet moments, I can see love radiating from you towards me
