Loving You
Minnie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lovin' you is easy 'cause you're beautiful
Makin' love with you is all I want to do
Lovin' you is more than just a dream come true
Everything that I do is out of lovin' you

No one else can make me feel the colors that you bring
Stay with me while we grow old
And we will live each day in springtime

Lovin' you has made my life so beautiful
And every day of my life is filled with lovin' you




Lovin' you I see your soul come shining through
And every time that we oooh I'm more in love with you

Overall Meaning

The song "Loving You" by Minnie Riperton is a beautiful tribute to the power of love. The opening lines, "Lovin' you is easy 'cause you're beautiful," convey the ease and naturalness of love when it is deeply felt. Riperton then goes on to say that making love with the object of her affection is all she wants to do. This line touches on the physical aspect of love and highlights how it is an integral part of intimate relationships.


The next lines are especially poignant, as Riperton sings that loving someone is more than just a dream come true. This suggests that love is not just an idealized concept, but something that can be experienced in real life and bring real joy. The final line of the first verse, "Everything that I do is out of lovin' you," reinforces the idea that love is a guiding force in Riperton's life and is the motivation behind all her actions.


The second verse begins with the beautiful line, "No one else can make me feel the colors that you bring." This implies that the person she loves brings color and vibrancy to her life, and no one else can replicate that feeling. Riperton then implores her love to stay with her throughout their lives, even as they grow old. This sentiment reinforces the idea of love as a lifelong commitment.


The final lines of the song express how much the object of her affection means to her. Loving this person has made her life beautiful, every day is filled with love because of them, and Riperton sees their beautiful soul shining through whenever they are together. The repetition of the word "lovin'" in the chorus underscores the central theme of the song: that love is at the heart of everything.

This beautiful young lady left this world at age 31 years. I love her voice, it is so calming to me. Cancer is a horrible disease. R.I.P. Minnie. x

@robvillanuevajr7137

Wow…I didn’t know that’s what happened to her man 😔😔

@Roger_Ramjet

@@robvillanuevajr7137 sad indeed. She passed in 1979. 42 yrs old.

@citygirlingraham

Yes, at the age of 31 Minnie Ripperton died of metastatic breast cancer. Unfortunately, back then breast health was not widely discussed and Dr ignored black peoples medical concerns . I’m white and I know this.
