Space
Slick & Rose Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You said you needed lots of space
So I moved my things from your place and
Why you got that look on your face
Do you miss?
Do you miss?
Do you miss what lies
It's not about
How we turned it out
We ain't gotta speak everyday
For me to know that it's okay
I ain't tryin to be in your way
You know I care when I say
That it is what it is and that's okay
Yeah it is what it is and that's okay
Hook
You ain't gotta see me
Bay you can be free
Loving should be easy
You ain't got
You ain't got
Verse 2
Why you wanna be so complex?
My love is as good as it gets yeah
You know that I don't mean any harm
But there's calm before the storm
And when it rains baby it will pour
But I love you still, better than before
Baby you could look but you won't find
Another love as good as mine
We gone have it all in due time
Do your thing and I'll do mine
No fuss, no fight
No wrong, no right
No love, no loss
And it's all alright
Yeah
Hook Repeats
Bridge:
You ain't gotta speak to me
You got every right to be free
I'll be waiting patiently
Cuz I love cuz I love
It ain't gotta be so deep
Ain't no need to loose any sleep
I'll be waiting patiently
Baby you baby
Hook repeats
In "Space," Slick & Rose sing about being in a relationship where one person needs space. In the first verse, the singer talks about how they moved their things out of their partner's place, and wonders if they miss the physical intimacy they had before. Despite this, the singer is fine with giving their partner the space they need, and maintains that it doesn't mean they have to speak every day for things to be okay. The hook emphasizes the idea that love should be easy, and that one person shouldn't be held down or feel trapped by it.
In the second verse, the singer questions why their partner wants to complicate things, and asserts that their love is enough. They acknowledge the possibility of storms and turmoil within relationships, but insist that their love is strong enough to withstand it all. The bridge emphasizes the idea of patience and understanding, and how love doesn't always have to be so serious or deep.
Overall, "Space" is a song about navigating the delicate balance between love and independence. It's a reminder that it's possible to care for someone deeply and still give them the space they need to be their own person.
