Here's a breakdown of the lyrics:
Verse 1:
They love each other, they hate each other
They'll never be friends
They both feel something's gone wrong
But they can't name what it is
In this verse, the song introduces two people who have a complicated relationship. They experience both love and hate towards each other and sense that something is amiss, yet they struggle to articulate it.
Chorus:
They love each other, more than anything in this world
They love each other, more than they love themselves
They love each other, like nobody's ever been loved before
They love each other, but it will never be enough
The chorus emphasizes the intensity of the love between these individuals. It transcends everything else in their lives, surpassing even self-love. However, the song hints that this love may ultimately prove insufficient.
Verse 2:
They're trying to make it work
They're trying to understand each other
But it's not easy
They're both from different worlds
The second verse delves into the challenges they face in their relationship. They strive to make it work and comprehend one another, but their differing backgrounds and perspectives make it difficult to find common ground.
Bridge:
They're both afraid to be alone
They're both afraid to be hurt again
But they're also afraid to let go
Afraid to let love in
The bridge reveals their fears and vulnerabilities. They fear loneliness, being hurt, and letting themselves fall in love fully due to past experiences. This hesitation prevents them from experiencing the true potential of their relationship.
Verse 3:
They're reaching out for each other
They're trying to touch each other
But they can't reach far enough
They're both still holding on to something
In this verse, they attempt to connect on a deeper level, but a barrier seems to separate them. They are unable to fully embrace and communicate their love because they cling to something that hinders their union.
Outro:
They love each other, but it will never be enough
They love each other, but it will never be enough
They love each other, but it will never be enough
The outro reiterates the theme that their love, despite its intensity, may not be sufficient to overcome the obstacles and complexities in their relationship. It leaves listeners pondering the nature of love and its limitations.
Overall, "They Love Each Other" captures the complexities and challenges of love in a relationship, exploring themes of acceptance, understanding, and the barriers that can prevent individuals from fully experiencing the potential of their connection.
