Only Love
Wafia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

I've been thinking of us, I've been thinking too much
And I haven't been sleeping, 'cause the nights have been rough
I've been telling myself that it's only love
Will I start to believe it if I say it enough?

I've been talking a lot, 'cause I think you should know
I want it out in the open, let the insides show
I've been thinking of us, I've been thinking too much
And I don't understand it, but it's only love

I got nothing to lose
I got nothing to lose

It's only love
It's only love, only love
It's only love
It's only love, only love
It's only right
That we find a way to keep it all simplified
'Cause it's only love, only love

We'll it's hard to admit that I long for your touch
Is the honesty okay? Or is it too much
Am I out of line? I don't wanna hurt this time
But it's better to say it, then let it live in my mind

'Cause everybody needs somebody to hold on to
I'm starting to believe, I could hold on to you
I'm gonna learn how to trust and let go of it all
Enjoy the feeling that I can't control the way I fall

I got nothing to lose
I got nothing to lose

It's only love
It's only love, only love
It's only love
It's only love, only love
It's only right
That we find a way to keep it all simplified
'Cause it's only love, only love

It's only love
Only love, only love
It's only love
Only love, only love
It's only right




That we find a way to keep it all simplified
'Cause it's only love, only love

Overall Meaning

In Wafia's song "Only Love," the singer has been thinking about her relationship too much and unable to sleep well at night. She's been trying to convince herself that her feelings are only love and will eventually accept it if she says it enough. She's also been talking a lot recently to reveal what's going on inside. The singer admits that she longs for her lover's touch but is hesitant to confess her deepest feelings to avoid further hurt from her previous experiences. However, she acknowledges that everyone needs someone to rely on and begins to believe that she can depend on her lover. She's willing to learn how to trust and accept the uncertainty of falling in love.


The lyrics suggest that love is complicated and sometimes painful, but it's worth taking the risk. The singer is apprehensive about expressing herself completely, but she realizes it's better to confront her feelings than let them fester in her mind. She hopes that both of them will find a way to simplify their relationship without losing their love for each other.
