Love II Love
Various Artists Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's a light
A certain kind of light
That never shone on me
I want my life to be lived with you
Lived with you
There's a way everybody say
To do each and every little thing
But what does it bring
If I ain't got you, ain't got?

You don't know what it's like, baby
You don't know what it's like

To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you

In my brain
I see your face again
I know my frame of mind
You ain't got to be so blind
And I'm blind, so, so, so blind
I'm a man
Can't you see what I am?
I live and I breathe for you
But what good does it do
If I ain't got you, ain't got?

You don't know what it's like, baby
You don't know what it's like

To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you

You don't know what it's like, baby
You don't know what it's like

To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you

You don't know what it's like, baby




You don't know what it's like
To love somebody

Overall Meaning

The song "To Love Somebody" by Various Artists is a ballad about unrequited love. The singer is yearning for a specific person in their life and they mention that this person doesn't understand what it's like to truly love someone. They talk about a certain kind of light that has never shone on them and that they want their life to be lived with this person. The singer also touches on the idea that people claim to know how to do everything, but true happiness and fulfillment can only come from being with the one you love. The chorus repeats the phrase "you don't know what it's like, baby, to love somebody the way I love you" which encapsulates the main sentiment of the song.


The lyrics paint a picture of a man who is in love with a woman who is unaware of his feelings. He is frustrated by her lack of understanding of what it means to love someone so deeply. He is also frustrated by society's narrow-minded view of what it means to be successful or happy. The repetition of "you don't know what it's like" serves to emphasize the singularity of the singer's experience and adds a layer of desperation to the song.


Line by Line Meaning

There's a light
There's a hope, an expectation in me


A certain kind of light
A light that's specific to what I desire


That never shone on me
But I've never experienced it until now


I want my life to be lived with you
I want you to be a part of my life in every way possible


Lived with you
I want to share every moment of my life with you


There's a way everybody say
Everyone's always telling me how to do things


To do each and every little thing
To follow specific steps in order to achieve something


But what does it bring
But what's the point of doing it if it doesn't bring me closer to you


If I ain't got you, ain't got?
If I don't have you, what's the point of anything else


You don't know what it's like, baby
You can't possibly understand the depth of my feelings


To love somebody
To have intense, passionate feelings for someone


To love somebody
To be completely devoted to someone


The way I love you
In the exact same way that I love you and no one else


In my brain
In my mind, I constantly think of you


I see your face again
I keep visualizing your beautiful face


I know my frame of mind
I'm well aware of the state of my emotions


You ain't got to be so blind
You don't have to ignore my feelings for you


And I'm blind, so, so, so blind
But I am struggling to see anything beyond my love for you


I'm a man
I'm just a person with human emotions


Can't you see what I am?
Can't you see how desperately I love you


I live and I breathe for you
You're the reason for my existence and every breath I take


But what good does it do
But what's the use of loving you so much if I can't have you


If I ain't got you, ain't got?
If I don't have you, what's the point of anything else

Started off a team
Ballin' 'til we get the ring
We wanna compete but it's the weekend
We should link and party
'Til I need some ice on my knees
Chillin' with my niece, cousins, aunties
Come on everybody
What you bringin' to the potluck? I'm excited
Everybody got a spot, love, you're invited
Hate is just lost love, so they hidin'
Never know, try it, you just might like it
First, it was all love
Hands up superstar love
That you can have it, you can have it all, love
But then you took it, took it all, love, all love
Turn it up louder
Sing along, get the crowd up
But then you took it all, love
Then forgot all about us, but it's all love (oh, yeah, look)
Congratulations
You finally turned from the wrong station
Thank you for y'alls patience
I'll try not to make this a long statement
Mama said I shouldn't swear
So I'ma just put this on Dayton's
Nobody's born hatin', nobody's born fake
Why we fightin' over something we can all make?
That's stingy love
I'm just givin' love, ain't no givin' up
If you alive, only thing to do is live it up
I know you like that (like that)
I know you really, really like that (like that)
I know you not gon' do me like that
Give it to you, bring it right back
First, it was all love
Hands up superstar love (stars up)
That you can have it, you can have it all, love (and you can get it how you want)
But then you took it took it all, love, all love
Turn it up louder (turn it up louder)
Sing along get the crowd up (get the crowd up, come on)
But then you took it all, love
Then forgot all about us, but it's all love
I feel you
Sounds good in my ear
When I hear it like that
I feel you
I say I look good to the mirror
And it says it right back
I feel you
A little love wouldn't kill you (a little love wouldn't kill you)
You really did me wrong, it was real cruel (it was cruel)
Had a lot of love and I still do 'cause I feel you
What you bringing to the potluck? You're invited
Lemme get a lil' rice, put it on the side
With a lil' love on it (I need some love)
What you put a rub on it?
I can't get enough
I ain't never had nothin' like this
What you bringing to the potluck? You're invited
Lemme get a lil' rice, put it on the side
With a lil' love on it
What you put a rub on it?
I can't get enough, I can't get enough (uh)
First, it was all love (first, it was love)
Hands up superstar love (hands up superstar love)
That you can have it, you can have it all, love (you can get it how you want)
But then you took it, took it all, love, all love
Turn it up louder (turn the music up louder)
Sing along get the crowd up (oh, get the crowd up)
But then you took it all, love (took it all, love, come on)
Then forgot all about us, but it's all love
I feel you
Sounds good in my ear
When I hear it like that
I feel you
I say I look good to the mirror
And it says it right back (oh)
I feel you
A little love wouldn't kill you (a little love wouldn't kill you)
You really did me wrong, it was real cruel (it was real cruel)
Had a lot of love and I still do, 'cause I feel you
I feel you (I feel you)
Sounds good in my ear
When I hear it like that
I feel you
I say I look good to the mirror
And it says it right back (oh)
I feel you
A little love wouldn't kill you (a little love wouldn't kill you)
You really did me wrong, it was real cruel
Had a lot of love and I still do, 'cause I feel you

I love the part of Queen Poppy being shocked abt the scrapbook. We know that most of the history we know is written and twisted by the "winner"

@Bllue

β€œNobody’s born hating, nobody’s born fake. Why we fighting over something we can all make” is my favorite lyric and is a very powerful one. I’m surprised nobody has commented about it yet
