Thinking Out Loud
FAMILY ROOM - Ed Sheeran Lyrics

When your legs don't work like they used to before
As time progresses and physical abilities decline, symbolizing the inevitability of aging.

And I can't sweep you off of your feet
I may no longer be able to impress you as I once did with grand gestures.

Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love
I wonder if the intimacy and sweetness of our relationship will still be cherished.

Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks
I hope that the joy and love reflected in your expression will endure over the years.

And darling I will be loving you 'til we're 70
My commitment to love you will remain steadfast, even into old age.

And baby my heart could still fall as hard at 23
Despite the passing years, my emotional capacity to fall in love remains unchanged.

And I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
I reflect on the unpredictable and often inexplicable nature of how love develops.

Maybe just the touch of a hand
It could be something as simple as a gentle touch that ignites profound feelings.

Oh me I fall in love with you every single day
Each day renews my affection for you, illustrating the deepening nature of our bond.

And I just wanna tell you I am
I feel compelled to express my love and devotion to you.

So honey now
A tender invitation to deepen our connection in this moment.

Take me into your loving arms
Embrace me affectionately, signifying the safety and warmth of our relationship.

Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Share a romantic kiss in a beautiful and enchanting setting, highlighting our shared experiences.

Place your head on my beating heart
Rest against my chest, feeling the rhythm of my love and reassurance.

I'm thinking out loud
I am openly sharing my feelings, perhaps without censoring my thoughts.

Maybe we found love right where we are
It is possible that our love has blossomed in the circumstances of our current lives.

When my hair's all but gone and my memory fades
As I age and begin to forget, reflecting on the transient nature of life.

And the crowds don't remember my name
In my old age, recognition fades, emphasizing personal connection over public acclaim.

When my hands don't play the strings the same way, mm
As my skills and abilities diminish, signaling the toll of time on my passions.

I know you will still love me the same
I am confident your love for me will remain unchanged no matter the circumstances.

‘Cause honey your soul can never grow old, it's evergreen
Your essence and spirit will remain youthful and vibrant despite the aging process.

Baby your smile's forever in my mind and memory
Your smile has made a lasting impression on me, symbolizing joy and beauty.

I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
I contemplate the complex and unpredictable nature of love and its formation.

Maybe it's all part of a plan
Perhaps there's a greater design or purpose behind how we find love.

I'll just keep on making the same mistakes
I am willing to be imperfect in love, learning and growing through my missteps.

Hoping that you'll understand
I trust in your patience and compassion as I navigate our relationship.

But baby now
Let us focus on the present moment and our bond.

Take me into your loving arms
Embrace me with your affection, indicating a desire for closeness.

Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Share a romantic gesture in a breathtaking atmosphere, encapsulating our love.

Place your head on my beating heart
Feel the love I carry for you, inviting intimacy and trust.

I'm thinking out loud
I express my feelings candidly, perhaps revealing my vulnerability.

That maybe we found love right where we are, oh
Our love has emerged beautifully in the context of our current situation.

(Ah la la, la la la, la la la, la la la la)
A melodic interlude, conveying joy and celebration of our love.

So baby now
A gentle prompt to be present with one another.

Take me into your loving arms
Inviting you to embrace me warmly, symbolizing love and security.

Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Longing for a romantic acknowledgment in a dreamy, starry setting.

Oh darling, place your head on my beating heart
Rest against my chest, a gesture of trust and emotional connection.

I'm thinking out loud
I am openly expressing my true feelings without reservation.

That maybe we found love right where we are
Our love may have been discovered organically in our present circumstances.

Oh baby, we found love right where we are (maybe)
We have experienced love in its purest form, nurtured by our current realities.

And we found love right where we are
Emphasizing the idea that our love thrives beautifully in this very moment.
