The Right Kind Of Love
Paul Oxley's Unit Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I'm surprised to see the moon up above
And you know what I always say,
If it gets you through the day
Then it's the right kind of love.
Don't say that you won't find another,
Don't say we fit just like a hand in a glove.
Why should we worry about each other.
Then it's the right kind of love.
It isn't saying let's stay forever
It isn't saying leave me never
I'm only saying let's be together
Why do we promise love forever?
Why do we need the help of God up above
To say as long as we're together.
If it gets you through the day
Then it's the right kind of love.
If it gets you through the day
Then it's the right kind of love.
If it gets you through the day
Then it's the right kind of love.
The lyrics in "The Right Kind of Love" by Paul Oxley's Unit express a sentiment of enjoying love for what it is, in the moment.

They are open-minded about what love can look like, asserting "if it gets you through the day, then it's the right kind of love." The singer urges their partner not to worry about finding someone else or fitting like a hand in a glove. They question why we put so much pressure on love to last forever or need divine intervention to help it endure. Instead, they suggest enjoying the love that makes us happy now.
The lyrics highlight the importance of being present in the moment and savoring the joy that love brings us. It is a refreshing take on relationships that often have expectations and limitations. The singer encourages their partner to focus on what makes them happy rather than worrying about the future. The song's upbeat tempo and catchy melody add to the carefree tone of the lyrics.
