Love Me Again
Frances Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love me or leave me and let me be lonely
You won't believe me that I love you only
I'd rather be lonely than happy with somebody else

You might find the night time the right time for kissing
But night time is my time for just reminiscing
Regretting instead of forgetting with somebody else
There'll be no else unless that someone is you, you, you

I intend to be independently blue
I want your love but I don't want to borrow




I have it today and give back tomorrow
For my love is your love but there's no love for nobody else
