Love Again
Geni.Holiday Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Brought such a flame to me
And let it die
And if another love should find my heart
It will remind my heart of your goodbye
With every new love you
In others eyes, its you I see
If I love again
Though its someone new
If I love again
It'll still be you
In someone else's firm embrace
I'll close my eyes but see your face
If I love again
I'll find other charms
But I'll make believe, you are in my arms
And though my lips whisper
"I love you"
My heart will not be true
I'll be loving
Every time I love again
In Love Again, Holiday wonders why her previous love left her and brought such passion into her life only to let it die. She contemplates how her heart will respond to future loves after experiencing such heartbreak. Despite moving on to new relationships, Holiday acknowledges that she will always have thoughts of her past lover. She admits that when she loves another person, she will see her past lover in their eyes, and in their embrace, she will find her ex again. She will find other things to adore about her lover, but it will be a forced attempt to feel the same passion she once felt. She will whisper, "I love you" out of habit, but her heart will not be true to this new person. Despite moving on, every time she loves again, she will still be stuck loving the same person.
The lyrics of Love Again express the feelings and emotions that come with a past relationship's loss. Billie Holiday's rich and soulful voice accentuates the melancholic theme of the song. The lyrics of the song find a way to connect with a wide range of audiences' experiences. No one is immune to failed relationships and heartbreaks that make us feel like we will never love again. However, the song also communicates a message of hope that even when love dies, one can still love again, although they will be haunted by past lovers.

@GeetardHD ngl I have nothing to say 🗿
You did explain the motherhood point quite well
I could use suicide and violet crimes against men but then again most fights can be avoided
Suicide is a shitty thing and mental awareness is being spread quite well
This discussion did change my mind about feminism for good
One solution to forced parenthood is not to have sex with people one isn't sure about as a stable partner
But then again we have no right to stop people from their “private” decisions
There are some other men issues but non of them are on a large enough scale for a movement to be formed
Good discussion....its kinda funny how we had a discussion in a comment section of a YouTube short

Be Straight omg the one where you finally end it all? This is going to be awesome. Me and your mother have been waiting for this since you were born, it's rather reason she never let herself love you all these years... because she didn't want to ruin this moment.... where you end it.
She wants to savour the moment
