Love Me
Furniture Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Take what you will
Love me, love me
Take what you will
Now, it's all about now
And it's all about losing control
What will you do to me?
What can you do for me?
Love me, love me
Take what you want
Love me, love me
Take what you want
Trust, it's all about trust
And i'll trust you as far as you'll go
What do you want to do?
What wouldn't i do for you?
Twenty four hours in a town far away
We will recapture each hour of that day
Come the next morning, i know that you'll stay
If i open myself up to you
Are you strong enough?
If i offer you all of my life
Is that long enough?
Love me, love me
Take what you need
Love me, love me
Take what you need
You won't go out of my mind
I can't see, i can't feel, i can't touch
You took my senses then
Come here now and take them again
We had
Twenty four hours in a town far away
We will recapture each hour of that day
Come the next morning, i know that you'll stay
If i open myself up to you
Are you strong enough?
If i offer you all of my life
Is that long enough?
If we make the past different tonight
Can that be wrong?
Since the time we first met
This night has been my goal
But i don't know where to go next
I want you to take control
And i love you
I love you so much
I can't see, i can't feel, i can't touch
Come the next morning, i know that you'll stay
If i open myself up to you
Are you strong enough?
If i offer you all of my life
Is that long enough?
If we make the past different tonight
Can that be wrong?

The Furniture song "Love Me" is a passionate and intense song about the depths of love and trust. The lyrics speak of a desire to be loved completely, to have all inhibitions removed and to be completely vulnerable with another person. The repeated lines of "Love me, love me, take what you will / Love me, love me, take what you want" suggest a willingness to give oneself over entirely to the other person, almost as if surrendering to their whims and wants.
The theme of trust is also present in the song, with the line "Trust, it's all about trust / And I'll trust you as far as you'll go" expressing a desire to give oneself completely to another person, but also to be able to trust that person completely. The lyrics are full of longing and desire, and the idea of living in the moment and seizing the opportunity for love is a dominant theme.
The song also features a recurring reference to a day spent in a faraway town, with the lyrics "Twenty-four hours in a town far away / We will recapture each hour of that day / Come the next morning, I know that you'll stay". The implication is that this shared experience was a pivotal moment for the relationship, and the two people involved are hoping to recapture that same magic.
Overall, "Love Me" is a powerful song about the intensity of love, the importance of trust, and the desire to live in the moment and take risks for love.

I agree. It's an album of such originality and substance. A true gem that has yet to be discovered by so many. I'm glad I found it.
