My Love Lyrics

My love,
Leave yourself behind
Beat inside me
Leave you blind
My love
You have found peace
You were searching for release

You gave it all
Into the call
You took a chance and
You took a fall for us

You came thoughtfully
Loved me...

    A girlfriend and her boyfriend had gotten into a car accident but the girl had survived due to her boyfriend stopping and allowing him to be the one to take the hit. He had been hospitalized but was struggling to live. He eventually gave in to death and the girlfriend was left behind with only memories of him, She had learned to become stronger due to how much love and dedication he showed to her. Eventually the girl began to move on but she would never forget the love history she had with him. Then as she began to move forward, saying that someday she will be with him (in heaven).

    It reminds me of my mother. The fact that it comes from the Twilight soundtrack makes it even more personal, my mom and I loved watching the Twilight Saga together. She passed away in August unexpectedly due to Aneurysm.
    My interpretation of this song is a description of a mother's love. She taught me honour and loved me faithfully. I believe she beats inside me because I see her every time I look in the mirror, since she passed away I find myself looking more and more like her. The last verse where it says "I know you're pleased to go", my mother had major headaches and she's peaceful where she is right now, she wanted to be at peace. She went in for an operation and didn't make it out. She wanted the pain to stop. "I won't relieve this love" no matter what I don't think anyone in this world would ever be able to love me like my mother did and I don't think I can ever let go of the memories or love she had shown me when she was still alive, when I did not even deserve it.

    I think it is about God/Jesus dying for our sins. "You gave it all..You took a chance and took a fall for us." Jesus gave up everything he had for all of us. "Now I am strong, you gave me all, you gave all you had, now I am home." Jesus allowed us into heaven (home) and we are empowered now.

    She sings to me in the night sometimes. She hides her pixie eyes in my minds.

    The moments in our distant lives apart universal
    Ties... through sounds and sights. Wrongs and writes

    Her siren roared on my right painfully reminding me beyond sight.
    She wanted me to hold her tight that night... the right way... in that one moment when she needed me too...

    Two worlds apart traveling inside one image... different orbits and without time to remind us of what was real.

    Fantasys realities
    The Queen of infinity
    With the devided face...
    worlds of colorful gifts... to the shifty place ❤

    To me this song is about learning to love myself and giving myself the love that I deserve and finally realizing my love is now buried inside of me and not given to just anyone and the strength it gave me once I got hold of it

    This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway

    Absolutely beautiful song. She describes her relationship with her boyfriend as her moving on without him until they meet again in Paradise or heaven.

    I think it is about losing someone that loved you so much. It reminds me of my Memaw Ruby dying of cancer and lupas. It makes me think of her and her grave and makes me miss her even more even though I love the song. I also think it's about being with them as they go in peace. It also makes me think of when I almost lost my mom. She's still around but I'd probably be dead right now if she wasn't.I also see someone lying next to their dead lover in a beautiful meadow. This song evokes a lot of memories and images.

    You can tell it describes the love between two persons . One helping the other to fight for herself / himself as they slowly get lost in some kind of a void . The person thinks that loving him or her with a love so deep , so selfless , so peaceful can help to somehow bring them back to consciousness.

    To me, this song really expresses my feelings for my lover.We have gone through many hard situations,,,
    he wanted to suicide. He got desparate
    with his life and surroundings.He wanted to hide all these things from me.Coz he didn't want me to be depressed,yet I could assume his condition. he couldn't handle it anymore. At last he decided to leave the world.. he tried to do this a few times but somehow he couldn't.
    he thinks the reason,he couldn't leave, he couldn't get relieved is Me.

    he loves me with all he has. As he says he finds peace in me now.
    I have to admit,this person has changed me a lot. I can't ever leave him.Because his life means a lot to me.
    So this song reminds me of all those memories,how I got him back,How I had handled him during all those situations.
    Now I take those circumstances as my strength.

    If it was not written as a gospel message it is that by accident. The most powerful love that could possibly be is that love that empties itself completely for the other, even unto death. And through that emptying of the one is the transference of all that the One is and has to the other. Such a love among humans in it's fullness has only been displayed once for all time and eternity in Jesus Christ. Sia has captured this message in such power, beauty and clarity that it stands alongside the greatest hymns of all time

    it means a boyfriend and a girlfriend bing in something serious as if in danger. the guy risked his life for her, thats why she says he taught her honor. as she said thats why she's strong. he made her strong. now she's thinking that he has rested from the pain of this world. he heart is mending but she will be with him. as Sia says he loved her honestly. in the song she also mentions that he gave her all she had.

    The song was written well before twilight so its obviously not anything about twilight. The world does not revolve around a bunch of shitty actors playing a gay vampire that's more like a frigging fairy and a hopeless slut that looks like she's on Meth. Its insulting to take such a beautiful song and apply it to a stupid movie like twilight

    At first I thoguht the song was about Bella dying to be reborn as a vampire.

    Then, I thought the song was abuot Edward being saved or released from the demons of his past, saved by Bella's love for him....

    But now, as I listen, it sounds like a conversation between them. Some things sound like Edward telling her, she will sleep for the last time, and her telling him that he will wait for her. Bella is telling him that he made her stronger, and gave her all he had, which was the ability to become a vampire. Or her telling him that he can rest now in peace without thinking of himself as a monster. idk. The more I listen to it the more meanings I get out of it. But, it was written exclusively for Twilight, so I feel that it is directly related to the series, and not solely Sia's personal experiences. I can also make the song relate to my life....so hey, who knows.
