Bombs of My Love
Yonee Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was sittin wishin in this barren desert wasteland all alone Hopin
That mirages weren't some type of thing I've come to know She
Whispered closely told me this is all that we could ever
Be But none of me could be the enemy and destroy our destiny
Prechorus: Cause our love is a battlefield And I'm a soldier made of
Steel And I'll fight until the end Cause shallow
Wounds always mend Oh no I wont camp here tonight
And Ill win your love, love, love,

If you ready for war Outrun the sun, sun, sun,
Just surrender your core I'll give you bombs of my love but I
Don't wanna explode So follow me follow me And I'll show you home
2: That girl coulda crushed my spirit oh yeah right down
To the bone Until the day I realized my courage is all I ever owned
Ever owned)
Ever owned)
Prechorus: Cause our love is a battlefield And I'm a soldier made of
Steel And I'll fight until the end Cause shallow
Wounds always mend Oh no I wont camp here tonight
And Ill win your love, love, love,
If you ready for war Outrun the sun, sun, sun,
Just surrender your core I'll give you bombs of my love but I
Don't wanna explode So follow me follow me And I'll show you home
I'll give you bombs of my love but I don't wanna
Explode So follow me follow me And I'll show you home
And Ill win your love, love, love,
If you ready for war Outrun the sun, sun, sun,
Just surrender your core I'll give you bombs of my
Love but I don't wanna explode So follow me follow me

And
I'll show you home

Overall Meaning

In Yonee's song "Bombs of My Love," the first verse finds the singer sitting alone in a barren, desert wasteland, wishing for a love that seems too good to be true. The woman he desires whispers to him that their love is doomed and that they could never be together. The singer refuses to accept this, declaring that he will fight for their love until the bitter end. In the pre-chorus, he compares his love to a battlefield and himself to a soldier made of steel, ready to withstand any pain. He tells his beloved that even though there may be shallow wounds along the way, he will not give up the fight.

The second verse reveals that the singer has been crushed by this woman in the past, but he now knows that his own courage is all he needs to succeed. He repeats the pre-chorus, and in the chorus, he makes his final plea: "I'll give you bombs of my love but I don't wanna explode / So follow me, follow me / And I'll show you home." The bombs of his love are a metaphor for the intensity of his emotions, which he is willing to unleash in order to win her heart, but only if she is willing to surrender to him.

The song is about the fierce determination to fight for love, even when the odds seem insurmountable. It recognizes the personal sacrifices that one must make for the sake of love, including the risk of getting hurt. The singer is a solider who has been battle-tested, but he is also tender and vulnerable.
