Our Kind of Love
Lady Antebellum Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just shining down on me and you
I swear your heart is a free bird
On a lazy sunny afternoon
I love the way that you were up for anything
Never worried 'bout what people say
That's right, oh that's rightWhat we got is
Just like driving on an open highway
Never knowing what we're gonna find
Just like two kids, baby, always trying to live it up
Whoa, yeah, that's our kind of love
Oh that's our kind of love
Skipping rocks and leaving footprints
Down along the riverbank
Always holding hands, never making plans
Just living in the moment, babe
You keep me laughing with those funny faces
You somehow always know just what to say
That's right, oh that's right
What we got is
Just like driving on an open highway
Never knowing what we're gonna find
Just like two kids, baby, always trying to live it up
Whoa, yeah, that's our kind of love
That's our kind of love
Oh that's right, baby you and I
What we got is
Just like driving on an open highway
Never knowing what we're gonna find
Just like two kids, baby, always trying to live it up
Whoa, oh
Just like driving on an open highway
Never knowing what we're gonna find
Just like two kids, baby, always trying to live it up
Whoa, yeah, that's our kind of love
Oh, that's our kind of love
Oh, that's our kind of love, oh baby
One, two, three, here we go
Oh, yeah
Oh that's our kind of love
Don'tcha know it

They enjoy each other's company to the fullest, never worried about what others may think of them. They are always up for anything and never make specific plans, preferring to live in the moment. The way they interact with one another, always laughing, holding hands, and goofing around, is what makes their love "our kind of love." The singer compares their love to driving on an open highway, never knowing what lies ahead, and to being two kids constantly trying to live life to the fullest.

What a beautiful day in Carolina. A welcomed break from the cold winds of winter. When I was a little nightingale, I loved nothing more than the carousel...of which I called my merry-go-round. Painted ponies took my heart away even back then! I think of Sunshine on a day like this so how can any heart be tired or sad. Warmth from this beautiful sunshine reminds that life is worth living and spring brings renewal to all of us. Hang on tightly and sleep loose, forgive everything and dream always!

This group is like a breath of fresh air. Can't wait to see them live. Their harmony is so solid, as if they've been singing together since childhood. Not only that, but their lead guitarist gives them an additional unique sound. Ty Lady A !
