Sampson And Mason Feat Soraya Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I tell you that I love you, then you think I'm gonna leave you
You say you feel fine but I know that's a lie, yeah
Caught you crying in the kitchen in the dark last night, yeah
You don't need to be tough with me
Go and tell your demons not to fuck with me, yeah
I don't wanna be like this
I don't wanna put us on the line like this
I don't wanna fuck it up and leave it hanging like this
I don't wanna leave and give you up like this
We're not gonna live that way
We're not gonna love that way
We're not gonna give it up that way
We're gonna be okay, baby
I've been working late, you've been in your feelings
You've been on edge, playing like you're on defense
I've been on the beat like I'm looking for a crime, yeah
But baby when you look at me and tell me that you're mine, yeah
Gonna kiss and make up till it's 4 in the morning
Hold you real close just the way you like it
We been making love with too many feelings
Loving real hard and it goes real deep, yeah
I don't wanna be like this
I don't wanna put us on the line like this
I don't wanna fuck it up and leave it hanging like this
I don't wanna leave and give you up like this
I don't wanna be that way
Baby I could never do you that way
We're not gonna live that way
We're not gonna love that way
We're not gonna give it up that way
We're gonna be okay
Baby, we make love with too many feelings
I like it too much, boy
Just let me hold you
Just let me kiss you
The lyrics to Sampson and Mason/Sorayo's song The Feeling seem to be a testament to the fear that is often associated with love. The opening lines speak to the intensity and depth of the love that they share, however, much of the song seems to focus on the fear of losing that love. The line "I tell you that I love you, then you think I'm gonna leave you" seems to highlight a certain level of insecurity that exists within the relationship. The presence of fear, doubt, and insecurity within the context of deep love is a common theme in many songs, and this song is no exception.
The second verse highlights a similar sentiment, with the writer expressing that they are working late and their partner is caught in their feelings. The tension that exists between the two seems to be palpable, and the writer describes the intensity of their emotions with the line "Loving real hard and it goes real deep, yeah". Despite the fear and doubt that exists within the relationship, the writer expresses a desire to continue pursuing this love and working through their issues to come out on the other side more connected and stronger than ever before.
Overall, The Feeling seems to be a heartfelt exploration of the many complex emotions that exist within the context of a deeply loving relationship. While fear and doubt are present throughout the song, so too is an unwavering commitment to working through these difficult emotions and coming out on top.
