Thinking Out Loud
Mr.KiD Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She’s always talking karma am the one that’s calmer
She boils like a kettle am constant hot like lava
Explode every once in a while what would you rather?
Stubborn attitude yeah it’s something like my fathers
But Listen every body’s got there demons
Doesn’t excuse yours just cause you’re the one that’s preaching
Say you’re inside bleeding I guess you need some healing
I ain’t a doctor I can’t intervene in this one
I guess it means you’re gone you finally got what you want
You’re always right am always wrong
Why should we go on there’s something crazy loopy wrong
In your head where’s it come from like am smashing on a gong
There’s no response like am working on my one
I say the journeys stretched out you just love to say it’s long
You are a queen but its way past the prom
We got to prove what were worth so grindings what am on
Am having day mares I wake up sweating at night
I can’t explain it to ya if you don’t know what it’s like
You say you’re listening but you aint hearing me right
You aint feeling my pain cause we aint in the same fight
And there’s no ding ding
The only thing knocking is my heart beating
I always feel tired I don’t do much sleeping
I sowed a lot of badness so I guess am reaping
It now my name is flying round the town
I had so many friends the real ones still around
Fassy boy you will never see me down
As long as the S is beneath the crown am still around
I told you that I hate the circles
But round and round we go apparently it hurts you
If you need a doctor make him come and nurse you
Am sorry I dint make the dress rehearsals
When you stumble and fall you fucking quit huh?
You need to see the bigger picture
When you stumble and fall you fucking quit huh
You need to see the bigger picture
When you stumble and fall you fucking quit huh
You need to see the bigger picture
When you stumble and fall you fucking quit huh
You need to see the bigger picture
Check the situation man it’s so frustrating
I can see it in your eyes you know am right it’s blatant
Address and underline no more keep it caged in
You need to hang it out to dry cause freedoms amazing
I see the harm you’re doing to your health
Love to point the finger everywhere but at yourself
Fishing round for sympathy when you don’t need no help
You got the best teacher and healer in you and that’s yourself
Your bodies fully developed your brain it’s stuck at twelve
I know you’ve had your issues but too long on them you’ve held
Held you down too long you know you should have propelled
You need to catapult forward and expel
All the bad feelings the rottenness inside
Learn to focus on the truth let that be your guide
If you want a ride or die you know I can be your guy
Ride the journey of knowledge so the spirit never die
I don’t say this likely you won’t find no one like me
Am one of few gentlemen I speak politely
I don’t listen to your stories I hear what my eyes see
An cause I bare the truth some people don’t like me
Why you think you can’t be wrong
So are you with me what you on
I can’t work the situation out sometimes its long
Then I think back to how far we come from
We crossed a lot of bridges got so many scars and stitches
On the relationship sometimes the weather is wicked
We can’t always roll gently down the stream
Sometimes we got to stick to the facts I know you think its mean
We must paint the perfect picture then work on in between
Am speaking with a clear mind-set no more lean
Now I work on all the visions I’ve seen
We have to master prince and princess before were king and queen
When you stumble and fall you fucking quit huh?
You need to see the bigger picture
When you stumble and fall you fucking quit huh?
You need to see the bigger picture
When you stumble and fall you fucking quit huh?
You need to see the bigger picture




When you stumble and fall you fucking quit huh?
You need to see the bigger picture

Overall Meaning

Mr.KiD's song "Thinking out loud" expresses the idea of eternal love that transcends physical appearance, capabilities, and even memory. The opening lines state that when the loved one's legs don't work like they used to before, and the singer can't sweep them off their feet, he wonders if their mouth will still remember the taste of his love and their eyes will still smile from their cheeks. This illustrates the singer's concern about the fleeting nature of physical attractiveness and how it fades with age. He then reassures his beloved that he will love her until they are 70, and his heart could still fall as hard when he was 23. It then talks about how people fall in love in mysterious ways, and maybe a touch of a hand or just observing them is enough for love.


The chorus further reinforces the singer's devotion to his beloved, as he asks her to take him into her loving arms, kiss him under the light of a thousand stars, and place her head on his beating heart. He expresses his thoughts by stating he is thinking out loud and that maybe they found love right where they are. The second verse continues with the idea of aging and memory loss, but the singer assures his beloved that he knows she will still love him the same because her soul is evergreen, and her smile is forever in his mind and memory.


Overall, the song conveys the idea of love that transcends external factors that are usually considered essential in a romantic relationship. It tells us that love is not just a fleeting feeling driven by physical appearance but a profound connection that can last beyond life's setbacks and limitations.


Line by Line Meaning

When your legs don't work like they used to before
When your mobility declines with age and you are not as active as before


And I can't sweep you off of your feet
And when I can't lift you up or impress you anymore


Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love?
Will you still remember our romance and cherish the moments we shared together?


Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks?
Will your face still light up with happiness and joy when you look at me?


And darling, I will loving you 'til we're 70
And my love for you will not fade away even after several decades when we both reach the age of 70


And baby, my heart could still fall as hard at 23
And even when I'm old, my heart will still feel the same way it did when I was young and first fell in love with you at 23


And I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
And I'm contemplating about how love works in unpredictable and unexplainable ways


Maybe just a touch of a hand
Perhaps sometimes love can start with something as simple as touching someone's hand


Well me, I fall in love with you every single day
For me, falling in love with you is a daily occurrence that never fades away


And I just wanna tell you I am
And I just want you to know how much I love you


So honey now
So my dear love


Take me into your loving arms
Hold me close in your arms and show me your affection


Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Kiss me under the beautiful night sky with countless twinkling stars


Place your head on my beating heart
Rest your head on my chest and feel my heart beating with love for you


I'm thinking out loud
I'm expressing my thoughts and feelings out in the open


Maybe we found love right where we are
Perhaps we found each other and true love in our current place in life


When my hair's all but gone and my memory fades
When I am old and my hair has fallen out and my mind is not as sharp as it once was


And the crowds don't remember my name
And when I'm no longer famous or recognized by people


When my hands don't play the strings the same way (Mmm)
When I am unable to play my music with the same skill and dexterity as before


I know you will still love me the same
I know that your love for me will not diminish and that you will still love me for who I am


'Cause honey your soul could never grow old, it's evergreen
Because your soul is timeless and never ages, it remains evergreen


And, baby, your smile's forever in my mind and memory
And your beautiful smile remains etched in my mind and memory for all time


Well, I'll just keep on making the same mistakes
Well, I'll keep on being foolish and making blunders as long as you keep forgiving me


Hoping that you'll understand
Wishing that you'll comprehend my faults and shortcomings and love me in spite of them


Oh, baby, now
Oh, my sweet love, right now in this moment


Oh, darling, place your head on my beating heart
Oh, beloved, rest your head on my chest and listen to my heart beating with love for you


And we found love right where we are
And we discovered true love in each other's company and in our current place in life
