part time love
Gates David Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With me
Someone already there when I need
Company
'Cause when I'm feelin' low
I don't want to have to go out
Lookin'
For a part-time kind of love
And when the dreams and rainbows
Start to disappear
Don't want somebody up and runnin'
Outa here
'Cause when you stop and start
Baby it's just too hard upon
My heart
That part-time kind of love
And I can't take you darlin' livin' here
Wait and see
I want somebody who's committed
Now to me
Somewhere, someday you'll have
To take a chance
So if you like the music baby
Get up and dance
And if we grow together daring to dream
I know we'll find our shares of
Peaches and cream
And when the juices flow
I don't want no no no excuses
Just want your full time love
For me
Just want your full time love
For me.
The lyrics to Gates David's song Part Time Love express a desire for a consistent, committed partner.

They are tired of looking for a "part-time kind of love" and want someone who is in it for the long haul. The singer emphasizes that they can't accept a partner who is not fully committed to them, and that they want "full time love" and no excuses when it comes to affection and dedication.
The song conveys a sense of weariness and frustration with past relationships, and a longing for something deeper and more meaningful. The desire for commitment and consistency is emphasized throughout the song, and the lyrics suggest that the singer is ready to take a chance on a relationship with someone who is willing to give them their all. The reference to "juices flowing" suggests a physical aspect to the relationship, but the emphasis remains on a deep, emotional connection.
Overall, Part Time Love is a poignant and relatable song about the search for love and connection in a world that can feel unpredictable and fleeting.
