Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Think it over what you just said
Are you sure I'm not the one?
Well think it over
Yes think it over
Oh my heart grows cold and old
Think it over darlin' don't be slow
Are you sure I'm not the one?
Now let me know
Well think it over
Ah think it over
Oh my heart grows cold and older
Hey! Think it over, over and over
Think it over, over and over
The song "Think It Over" by Jimmy Page is a reflection of the emotions that arise when one is faced with the possibility that the person they love may not feel the same way. The lyrics suggest a sense of confusion and desperation as the singer tries to understand the situation. They implore the other person to "think it over in their pretty little head" and consider whether they may actually be the one for them.
The use of repetition in the song, particularly in the chorus where the phrase "think it over" is repeated multiple times, adds to its emotional weight. The singer is clearly struggling to come to terms with the situation and wants answers as soon as possible. The line "my heart grows cold and old" further emphasizes the internal struggle of the singer as they try to balance their feelings of love with the fear of rejection.
Overall, "Think It Over" is a powerful testament to the emotional toll of love and the lengths some will go to understand their own feelings and the feelings of others.
