Slave To Love Lyrics

Tell her I'll be waiting
In the usual place
With the tired and weary
And there's no escape
To need a woman
You've got to know
How the strong get weak
And the rich get poor

Slave to love
Oh, slave to love

You're running with me
But don't touch the ground
We're the restless hearted
Not the chained and bound
The sky is burning
A sea of flame
Though your world is changing
I will be the same

Slave to love
Oh, slave to love
Slave to love (na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na)
Slave to love (and I can't escape, I'm a slave to love)

(Oh)
(Can you help me?)
(Oh)
(Can you help me?)

The storm is breaking
Or so it seems
We're too young to reason
Too grown up to dream
Now spring is turning
Your face to mine
I can hear your laughter
I can see your smile

Slave to love (na-na-na-na, oh, na-na-na-na)
Slave to love (and I can't escape, I'm a slave to love)
Slave to love (na-na-na-na, oh, na-na-na-na)
Slave to love (and I can't escape, I'm a slave to love)
(Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na)
Slave to love (and I can't escape, I'm a slave to love)
(Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na)
Slave to love (and I can't escape, I'm a slave to love)
(Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na)
Slave to love (and I can't escape, I'm a slave to love)

What is the Meaning of Slave To Love?

This timeless piece delves into the depths of love's captivating power. The protagonist is consumed by an overwhelming affection, a sentiment so strong that he willingly submits to it, becoming its 'slave.' He's entrapped in an emotional whirlwind where reason and youthfulness are lost, replaced by a matured sense of longing and desire. The song beautifully captures the paradoxical nature of love - how it can make the wealthy feel poor and the powerful feel weak. Yet, amidst the tumultuous changes brought about by this fervent emotion, his devotion remains constant as he finds solace in her laughter and smile. This is a testament to love's transformative ability; it can bind us yet liberate us simultaneously. #EnslavedByLove #PowerOfLove
