Loving You
Hi-Liner Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(I can't stop loving you)
I've made up my mind
To live in memory of the lonesome times
(I can't stop wanting you)
It's useless to say
So I'll just live my life in dreams of yesterday
(Dreams of yesterday)
Those happy hours that we once knew
Tho' long ago, they still make me blue
They say that time heals a broken heart
But time has stood still since we've been apart

(I can't stop loving you)
I've made up my mind
To live in memories of the lonesome times
(I can't stop wanting you)
It's useless to say
So I'll just live my life in dreams of yesterday

(Those happy hours)
Those happy hours
(That we once knew)
That we once knew
(Tho' long ago)
Tho' long ago
(Still make me blue)
Still ma-a-a-ake me blue
(They say that time)
They say that time
(Heals a broken heart)
Heals a broken heart
(But time has stood still)
Time has stood still
(Since we've been apart)
Since we've been apart

(I can't stop loving you)
I said I made up my mind
To live in memory of the lonesome times

(I can't stop wanting you)
It's useless to say




So I'll just live my life of dreams of yesterday
(Of yesterday)

Overall Meaning

The Hi-Liner's song "Loving You" is a heartbreaking ballad about the difficulty of moving on after a loved one has departed. The lyrics indicate that the singer has tried to move on, but cannot shake the memories of their past love. The repetition of "I can't stop loving you" and "I can't stop wanting you" illustrates the desperation of the singer's internal struggle. They have resigned themselves to living a life of memories and dreams of yesterday. The happy times they shared with their beloved are now a distant memory, and although time is said to heal all wounds, it seems to have only intensified their grief.


The imagery of the past is palpable within the lyrics, "Those happy hours that we once knew, though long ago, they still make me blue", capturing the universal experience of lost love – that even though it may have been a while since the relationship ended, the memories remain present and bittersweet. The song conveys the human struggle in moving on, a relatable sentiment that many can identify with.
