Love Me Like Music
Heart Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

These have been quiet days
When was the last time i wanted to sing
Last few dying days hanging on - what will they bring?
Even you and me
We keep coming apart
And it's a wrong thing
We goota look right at each other and say it
Turn on the radio and play it
And fall in love again
Can you feel the light shine
You now this song's yours and mine
Ain't it good to know you've got a place to go
Where the melody's fine
Sometimes i'm not so strong
And even now i could be wrong
But if you love me like music
I'll be your song

Lately the day's been grey
And time's been hard
Man up in town putting everybody down
Watch him play his card
When you get free come on home to me
I'm gonna lay it down
We got love - we've got to feel it and show it
Make each other really know it




And fall in love again
We've got to be friends
