Love me two times baby
Love me twice today
Love me two times girl
I'm goin' away

Love me one time
Could not speak
Love me one time
Yeah, my knees got weak
Love me two times girl

All through the week
Love me two times
I'm goin' away

Love me two times
I'm goin' away
Oh yeah

Love me one time
Could not speak
Love me one time, baby
Yeah, my knees got weak
Love me two times girl
Last me
All through the week
Love me two times

Love me two times baby
Love me twice today
Love me two times baby
'Cause I'm goin' away
Love me two times girl
One for tomorrow, one just for today
Love me two times
I'm goin' away

Love me two times I'm goin' away

Overall Meaning

The Doors’ song Love Me Two Times is a track about a man leaving his lover behind for an extended period of time. The lyrics “Love me two times, baby, Love me twice today” express his desire for affection and love before his departure. The repetition of the phrase “Love me two times girl” indicates his desperation for physical and emotional connection before he disappears.


The second verse, “Love me one time, could not speak, Love me one time, yeah, my knees got weak” describes how deeply infatuated the man is with his lover. However, despite his adoration, he must “go away” and leave her behind. It’s clear that the man is feeling regret for not being able to stay with her all week, which he expresses in the line “Love me two times girl, last me all through the week”.


Overall, the song is a passionate plea for love and connection, but also expresses the bittersweet nature of temporary relationships. The narrator's intense emotions are heightened by the bluesy guitar riffs and Morrison's soulful voice. Love Me Two Times is regarded as one of the most iconic songs of The Doors, and is still a popular choice on classic rock radio.

Ámame dos veces, nena
Ámame dos veces hoy
Ámame dos veces, chica
Voy a salir
Ámame dos veces, chica
Una por mañana
Una solo por hoy
Ámame dos veces
Voy a salir

Ámame una vez
No podría hablar
Ámame una vez
Sí, mis rodillas se debilitaron
Pero ámame dos veces, chica
Que me duren toda la semana
Ámame dos veces
Voy a salir
Ámame dos veces
Voy a salir

Oh!, sí

Ámame una vez
No podría hablar
Ámame una vez, nena
Sí, mis rodillas se debilitaron
Pero ámame dos veces, chica
Que me duren toda la semana
Ámame dos veces
Voy a salir

Ámame dos veces, nena
Ámame dos veces hoy
Ámame dos veces, nena
Porque voy a salir
Ámame dos veces, chica
Una por mañana
Una solo por hoy
Ámame dos veces
Voy a salir
Ámame dos veces
Voy a salir
Ámame dos veces

My Dad has recently passed away and today I was going through his music and this one hit me hard. My Dad played this song on his guitar 44 years ago when I was 9. Watching his fingers play this riff was just amazing to watch.

Ilona White

A great memory.

Robert Felsing

Jesus the doors are good. The older I get the more I realise just how good they are. A band is lucky if they have a few great songs, the doors have dozens.

Lucas Gomes

They are awesome, one of the best bands, pure rock n roll with original sound and deep poetry, and they were wild live.

Rea Rufus

Totally agree! ❤
