Never Enough
Groove Theory Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Boy, in my mind, I see you holdin' me
It's the one, place that you got the time
To give me some love, and it feels so fine
I don't want to wake up, from my dreamin'

Words, that you say
Don't mean, don't mean a thing
If you can't, start showing me today
That you're gonna try, and I just can't stay
With you by my side
Cause you're not giving enough

Never enough, never enough
You're not giving me love
Giving me love, giving me love love baby
You're not giving enough
Never enough, never enough
You're not giving me love
Giving me love, giving me love love baby

I, don't' like to be alone
Especially when I hurry home
And you decided you can't stay around
Am I stuck here with the sound, of my heart beating baby

And my tears are falling
Look, in your heart, and tell me baby
Tell me if you want to play the part
Of someone in love

Have you gone too far, to give me that much
Cause you're not giving enough

Never enough, never enough
You're not giving me love
Giving me love, giving me love love baby
You're not giving enough
Never enough, never enough
You're not giving me love
Giving me love, giving me love love baby

Na na na

Never enough, never enough
Giving me love, giving me love love baby
Never enough, never enough
Giving me love, giving me love love baby
Never enough, never enough




Giving me love, giving me love love baby
Never enough, never enough

Amel is highly underrated in my opinion, she is very talented and has a great voice.

@jmonie02

Good.

@tmot6714

When Amel sings, its as if she’s singing to me. This songs has that mid 90’s New York studio-loft artsy type of feel to it.

@africanbella28

So true💕💕💕

@tmot6714

@africanbella28 Stay blessed

@thomaskoroma8784

She's actually a vocalist with extreme talent. Not to take nothing away from Beyonce. This woman sounds amazing!!!!

@evonnastarr

Thomas Koroma beyounce who?

@368carameldelux

@Adira Yah Ahava Ok!!! Compared to Amel....... They tried it!!!

@mrdothat

They were waaaaay ahead of their time. Sing it girl !!!!!

@siristarburst9

Lol how could that make sense? Respectfully, nothing good came after the 90s to place them ahead of their time tho
