The Beatles Recovered Band Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You think you lost your love,
Well, I saw her yesterday.
It's you she's thinking of
And she told me what to say.
She says she loves you
And you know that can't be bad.
Yes, she loves you
And you know you should be glad.
She said you hurt her so
She almost lost her mind.
But now she said she knows
You're not the hurting kind.
She says she loves you
And you know that can't be bad.
Yes, she loves you
And you know you should be glad. Ooh!
She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
And with a love like that
You know you should be glad.
You know it's up to you,
I think it's only fair,
Pride can hurt you, too,
Apologize to her
Because she loves you
And you know that can't be bad.
Yes, she loves you
And you know you should be glad. Ooh!
She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
with a love like that
You know you should
Be Glad!
with a love like that
You know you should
Be Glad!
With a love like that
You know you should
be glad!
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah Ye-ah.
The Beatles' song She Loves You is a cheerful, upbeat tune about a woman's love for a man who is feeling down. The song is essentially a pep talk from the perspective of a friend or bystander who has seen the woman and spoken to her about her love for the man. The repeated refrain of "she loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah" is meant to hammer home the message that the woman truly does love the man and that this should be a source of joy and happiness for him.
In the first verse, the singer tells the man that he saw the woman the day before and that she was thinking of him. The second verse takes a bit of a darker turn as she tells the man that the woman had been hurt by him but has now realized that he is not the type to intentionally hurt her. This leads into the chorus, which reinforces the message that the woman loves the man and that he should be grateful for this.
The final verse is a bit of a call to action for the man. The singer tells him that pride can hurt him too and that he should apologize to the woman for whatever he did to hurt her. The chorus is repeated again, with the final "yeah, yeah, yeah" serving as a joyful exclamation that the man should be glad he is loved.
