I'm Still In Love With You
Green Al Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Spending my day thinkin' 'bout you girl
Being here with you
Being near with you
I can't explain myself
Why I, feel like I do (like I do)
Though it hurt me so
To let you know
When I look in your eyes
You have to let me know
How you feel
Let me know that love is really real
Well, it seems to me
That I'm
Wrapped up in your love

Don't you know that I'm
Still in love (still in love, in love with you)
Sho' 'nuff in love with you, yeah

Heaven knows that I'm
Still in love (still in love, in love with you)
Sho' 'nuff in love with you, hey

And I look in your eyes
And all, all the years, I see (I see)
Me lovin' you
And you lovin' me
Well, it seems to me
That I'm so wrapped up in your love

Don't you know that I'm
Still in love (still in love, in love with you)
Sho' 'nuff in love with you, hey
I, I, I

I need you to know that I'm
Still in love (still in love, in love with you)
Sho' 'nuff in love with you




Yeah, I'll try it if you want me too (still in love, in love with you)
I, I, I, I, I

Friday 2/28/2020 I just put away first & only True Love. He passed on his B-day Mon. Feb. 10, 2020. We married July 23rd, 1975, right after my 18th b-day. My b-day is July 18. We had good times & hard times. But, he left this Earth knowing I loved him from the beginning & I loved him to the end. I keep crying cause I think of the good & the bad times. I was hoping & praying to have my husband, my sons father for another 3 years. He promised he would be here. He was greatly ill. I MISS HIM SO, though I know for certain I will see my first love, my only love again when I get to heaven. Love ur loves one as much as possible. Never tire of showing them & telling them how much they mean to u. God bless everyone that reads this. Babe, I AM STILL IN LOVE WITH YOU!!

Heaven = Cruising in a 75' Cadillac, listening to AL Green on a long country road, during a summer afternoon eating an ice cream cone at slow speed while heading to a family cookout at grandma's house which is down a dusty path with tall cedar trees giving you a windy salute as they gently rock back and forth until sunset. I miss you grandma. See you soon.

@user-nb1dw7px9y
