Love Maker
Foreigner Lyrics

Let me be your lovemaker
I want to be the one who makes love to you and brings you pleasure.

Let me be your soul shaker
I want to be the one who excites you and makes you feel truly alive.

Around this time last summer
I am reminiscing about a past summer where we first met.

when you and I first met
This is a story about the beginning of our relationship.

I thought I was cool
At the time, I believed I was impressive and suave.

Living by the rules
I followed prescribed social norms and protocols, trying to be a model citizen.

Trying to play hard to get.
I put up barriers, pretending to be less interested than I was, to entice you.

So you found some good-time guy
You began dating someone else who was more available for your needs.

To give you the love you needed.
You sought out someone who could provide the emotional and physical intimacy that I couldn't.

I didn't know a thing
At the time, I was ignorant to the depth and intensity of romantic love.

about the thrills love could bring
I didn't realize that love could bring such intense feelings of pleasure and happiness.

I was young, selfish, and conceited.
I admit to being self-centered and vain in the past, before I knew you.

I know you don't think I'm ready
Although you may not believe in me, I am capable of being the partner you seek.

But open your eyes and see.
I want you to see who I truly am and what I have to offer.

i can show you how ready i am
I can demonstrate my readiness to love and care for you.

I can love away all your misery!
I can provide the love and support you need to overcome any pain or negative feelings.

About this time last year
I am recalling a time when we were together and I neglected to appreciate your love.

I was blind to all the good things you said.
I wasn't able to recognize the value in the kind and loving things you told me.

The sweet words you spoke
You expressed affectionate and loving sentiment towards me.

I took them for a joke
Sadly, I didn't take your words seriously, and didn't believe they came from a sincere place.

Though they were strong enough raise the dead!
Your words held great power and could have invigorated even the most despondent person.

So you thought you wasted
You believed that you spent time and emotional energy on someone who didn't return your affection.

Both your time and mine
You saw the relationship as a fruitless expenditure for both of us.

But now I'm ready to do
Despite my past hesitation, I am ready and willing to be the loving partner you deserve.

What you want me to
I want to accommodate your needs and desires.

Cause I'm your man
I want to assert myself as the best romantic partner for you.

And I ain't Lyin'
I am being truthful and honest with you about my feelings and intentions.

Won't it be nice baby
Imagine how great it would feel if we were together again.

If ya let me be your love maker
I want to be your lover once again.

Let me be good to ya.
I want to treat you with kindness and care.

Honey, Honey, Yahhhhh!!!!!
An expression of enthusiasm and excitement for the potential of rekindling the romantic relationship.
