Love Me
Les And Paul Barrrette...Favourites Of Fulham FC Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Was it something I said
That you read all wrong and that
I don't know why you follow me
After all of these times
When I left you so far behind
You don't seem to care
If I ever give back
You seem to be pleased
If you only show me
All of the love inside of you
I wish that I could love that way too
I don't know why you write me
But I never write back
But you answer me anyway
I don't know why you love me
But I'm learning to love
Not depending on love in return
You don't seem to care
If I ever give back
All of the love you've given me
You seem to be pleased
If you only show me
All of the love inside of you
I wish that I could love that way too
The lyrics of Les And Paul Barrett's song "Love Me" have a certain level of ambiguity to them, making interpretation a bit challenging. However, based on the words used, it seems like the singer is talking to someone who they feel is not reciprocating their love. The repeated lines "You don't love me" emphasize the pain and frustration felt by the singer.
The second verse introduces the idea of dead hours and remaining within view, hinting at a feeling of isolation and loneliness. The line "My devotion is new" could suggest that the singer is experiencing these feelings for the first time, perhaps in relation to a new love interest. However, this love interest does not seem to be returning the affection.
The chorus, "Never be, never be, never be still / Whilst Carys's neighbors are thriving / Thriving" seems to contrast the singer's feelings of stillness and stagnation with the activity and vibrancy surrounding them. The following lines highlight another scene of isolation and despair, with dead flowers "Stinking up the corridors and wounds / My intentions half-used."
The repeated phrase "Take your cake out of my face / On point / Divine / Die hard" towards the end of the song is difficult to interpret without more context, but it could be a frustrated expression of the singer's desire for their love interest to leave them alone.
Overall, the lyrics of "Love Me" explore themes of unrequited love, isolation, and feelings of being stuck or stagnant.
Line by Line Meaning
You don't love me
I am aware that you don't harbor affection towards me
You don't love me
I am aware that you don't harbor affection towards me
Concaved empathy
My emotions are sinking inwards
But you don't love me
However, you still do not love me despite my emotional state
I dream about dead hours
I have nightmares during the night
And think about remaining within view
I am always thinking about being visible to others
My devotion is new
I am newly devoted to someone or something
Never be, never be, never be still
I must always be on the move and active
Whilst Carys's neighbors are thriving
Even when others around me are doing well, I cannot stop moving
And in the midnight pity bath
During moments of self-pity in the middle of the night
I found no towels
I am unable to dry myself off from my negative emotions
But you won't see scenes
I am keeping these negative emotions hidden from you
I think about dead flowers
I often ruminate on decaying things, such as flowers
Stinking up the corridors and wounds
These decaying things are causing unpleasant smells and harm
My intentions half-used
I have not been able to fulfill all of my goals and plans
Take
I request that you
Your cake
Your desirable things
Out of my face
Remove them from my vicinity
On point
Exactly as it should be
Divine
Almost godly in nature
Die hard
An unwavering and determined nature
Never be, never be, never be still
I must always be on the move and active
Never be, never be, never be still
I must always be on the move and active
Never be, never be, never be still
I must always be on the move and active
Whilst Carys's neighbors are thriving
Even when others around me are doing well, I cannot stop moving
Thriving
Prospering and succeeding

Fun fact: Not only has Jimmy made a 102 break, but he also Beat Tiger Woods in a play-off for The Masters using only hickory clubs, captained England to World Cup glory in 2014 scoring a hattrick in each game, and conquered Everest wearing flip flops.
@Ben-cx5fe
And at the top of Everest was his nine darter :)

He may have made one. I've made over a thousand but not played for 25 years. If I tried now with no practice I'd struggle to make 50! Such a difficult game!
