I Found Love
Lives Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I threw out my shoulder but I won her that teddy bear
She's got me saying sugar-pie, honey, darlin', and dear
I ain't seen the Braves play a game all year
I'm gonna get fired, if I don't get some sleep
My long lost buddies say I'm gettin' in to deep
But I like it, I love it, I want some more of it
Don't know what it is 'bout that little gal's lovin'
But I like it, I love it, I want some more of it
My Mama and Daddy tried to teach me courtesy
But it never sank in 'til that girl got a hold of me
Now I'm holding umbrellas and openin' up doors
I'm taking out the trash and I'm sweepin' my floors
Crossin' my fingers, and countin' every kiss
Prayin' that it keeps goin' on like this
But I like it, I love it, I want some more of it
I try so hard, I can't rise above it
Don't know what it is 'bout that little gal's lovin'
But I like it, I love it, I want some more of it
Got to wash my truck and dress up
To pick her up to watch TV
And she sits down on the sofa
She'll move a little closer
She can't get enough of me
But I like it, I love it, I want some more of it
I try so hard, I can't rise above it
Don't know what it is 'bout that little gal's lovin'
But I like it, I love it, I want some more of it
In this song, the singer describes his infatuation with a woman. He spent forty-eight dollars to win her a teddy bear at the county fair, injuring his shoulder in the process. She has him using terms of endearment like "sugar-pie," "honey," "darlin'," and "dear." He's so taken with her that he hasn't been to a baseball game all year, risking losing his job due to lack of sleep. Despite his friends warning him that he's "getting in too deep," he can't resist her. He doesn't quite know what it is about her, but he likes it, loves it, and wants more of it.
The second verse reveals that the singer's parents tried to teach him courtesy and manners, but it didn't really stick until he met this woman. Now he's doing things like holding umbrellas and opening doors for her, taking out the trash, and even sweeping his floors. He's counting every kiss and praying that their relationship keeps going the way it has been.
The final verse portrays the singer as going to great lengths to impress this woman, including washing his truck and dressing up to watch TV with her. Every time they're on the couch together, she moves closer to him and can't seem to get enough of him. The song ends with the singer reiterating how much he likes, loves, and wants more of this woman and her love.
Overall, the song portrays the rush of falling deeply in love and being utterly infatuated with someone, even to the point of neglecting other aspects of one's life.

Got to wash my truck and dress up, to pick her up to watch TV

I found a love for me
Oh darling, just dive right in and follow my lead
Well, I found a girl, beautiful and sweet
Oh, I never knew you were the someone waiting for me
'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
Not knowing what it was
I will not give you up this time
But darling, just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own
And in your eyes, you're holding mine
[Chorus]
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favourite song
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonight
[Verse 2]
Well I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know
She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I'll share her home
I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets
To carry love, to carry children of our own
We are still kids, but we're so in love
Fighting against all odds
I know we'll be alright this time
Darling, just hold my hand
Be my girl, I'll be your man
I see my future in your eyes
[Chorus 2]
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
When I saw you in that dress, looking so beautiful
I don't deserve this, darling, you look perfect tonight
[Instrumental]
[Chorus 3]
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
I have faith in what I see
Now I know I have met an angel in person
And she looks perfect
I don't deserve this
You look perfect tonight
