Love Me A Little Bit More

Love Me A Little Bit More
Embers of Autumn
(Key: A Major)

Take a breath, take a sigh
Take a number and get back in line
I've got proposals lining out the door
Keep in touch, Keep it real
and keep close to me where I can feel
Cause there's really only one I truly adore
And I'll be with you forever only
if you could love me a little bit more

Write a letter, Write a hook
Right a wrong that's been well overlooked
Just tell me that you acknowledge I'm alive
Come around, Come on by
Come on, destiny, give me a try
Cause I'm tired of lying just only to thrive
And I'll be with you forever only
if you could love me a little bit more

Don't listen to anything I've said
You're the only one I've got in my head
And to be honest, it's tearing me apart (2x)

Walk the line, Walk a mile
Walk away and steal my very smile
And you can keep it if you come back to me
And I'll be with you forever
I'll keep next to you whenever
I'll be with you forever only
If you could love me a little bit more.
If you could love me a little bit more
If you could love me a little bit more
If you could love me.... well, at all really...
"Out of all I've learned in Life,
You always keep your friends close to your heart,
cause they'll help you if you're falling down..."

Love me a little bit more
I walk down the halls
I walk down the corridors
But you don't see me

It's late and I'm getting bored
I got no time to cry
It's something I can't afford
I never will

Things are getting difficult
Things are getting strange
An old man lost in the desert
a sky falling out of a plane

Things are getting so much worse
Things are getting weird
A voice without a mouth
A splash without a tear

Love me a little bit more
I try to talk to you
I end up out the door
running away, running away

No one tries to stop me at all
It seems like they're waiting
for a chain to a saw
because, without that sound

Things are getting difficult
Things are getting strange
A baby crying in a tent
Home, home on the range

Things are getting so much worse
Things are getting weird
a flash without a camera
shaving without a beard

Things are getting difficult
Things are getting strange
I don't feel like myself
I don't feel the same

Things are getting so much worse
Things are getting discolored
The only thing that would help
is if you loved me a little bit more
Gimmie one good reason not to do it.
(because I love you)

Wow, we're such early birds this fight. :)

Love Me a Little Bit More

Love me a little bit more
Well, I don't love you that's for sure
But my starry eyes are slowing fixing
I spent my day off walking around
Everything felt watered down
I couldn't put my finger on what's missing

Hey hey My my
I hate to say goodbye
But you're not the reason why
Who cares? Who knows?
Superficial I suppose
Just stay with me tonight

You can try a little bit less
I'm just hanging on I guess
It doesn't even matter what you're saying
I'll be the Colmes to your Hannity
I'll take your punches and then I'll leave
As long as I'm not the one left staying

Hey hey My my
I hate to say goodbye
But you're not the reason why
Who cares? Who knows?
Superficial I suppose
Just stay with me tonight
Love me a little bit more
Love me a little bit more

Sure feels good holding you in my arms
Laying with you the one I adore

Times like these make my heart melt
When it's time to leave I only want more

Stroke your hair and watch you smile back
There are only great things for us in store


Chorus:
Slowly honey
I can feel you
love me a little bit more
and more and more

We spend every minute together never get bored
I could see myself staying with you for good

I know it hasn't been long dear
Don't want to wait but I know I should

One day we will hear those wedding chimes
I would move time itself if I could

Chorus x2

And more
and more
From spoken word to actual singing, I can screw up any style with style. :D

Love me a little a bit more
I'm no protector when I see they have you
In mind, and I talk to their image of you
Much better than mine
Wish I could be there wish that I could say
I didn't know
Bright easy the show dames
The collectors call you from the stands
Let us up, oh, it's gone
Ought to have waited

And in some moment when they're grateful
Maybe you'd show up and stop their prayers
Or make them pray alone
Now as a ghost, have them love you a little bit more
Wish I could be there wish that I could say
I didn't know
Bright easy the show dames
The collectors call you from the stands
Let us up, oh, it's gone
Ought to have waited

love me a little bit more - roymond

you always said I was a loner
you never said this was a fault of mine
i always knew we'd be together
from now to the end of time

so now with morning tea or coffee
we read the dailies on the floor
and if you want a way to help me
then love me, just a little bit more

you say let's marry
out in the yard
i say i'm thinking
this year is hard
you say don't worry
i'll know what it's for
if you love me, just a little bit more

and now I hear the things you tell me
and all I want to hear is more
so if you need a reason to be
then love me, just a little bit more

:twisted: ~ Love Me a Little Bit More ~ :twisted:

My dear, my darling, my bride
You make me so happy
Throughout all my fugutive years
You've always stood by me
I'm a man of science with theories and plans
And they persecute what they can't understand

But you, you've always been there
We've never gone under
And I know that I have your love
but sometimes I wonder
If I strapped you to a laborat'ry bed
And applied an electrical shock to your head
Could you love me a little bit more?

Don't get me wrong, my pet
I know you adore me
But the mysteries surrounding the mind
Are the ones that confound me
Where in the brain do you keep your affection?
And could it be seen if I did a cross section?

I'll exploit their weakness for love
With my greatest invention
To hold the whole world in my sway
is my fondest ambition
If I fitted you with a helmet of brass
Hooked up to a tank of cadaverine gas
Could you love me a little bit more?

If I drilled a hole at the base of your spine
And hooked you up to a telegraph line
Could you love me a little bit more?
If I put you into an opium trance
And used hypnosis to heighten romance?
Could you love me a little bit more?

Love Me A Little Bit More
by Heine (jan. 2009)


got a job to do
from 9 to 5
much too much to do
working overtime

when the sun sets down
I'm coming home
can't wait to see you
all alone

when the stars throw light upon our sheet
that's the time for you and me
squeeze me, tease me, no one else I adore
c'mon, hold me and love me just a little bit more


our eye circles
reveal the night
we kiss good bye
in the morning light

it's the strain of things
life goes on and on
we wait all day for
night to come

Love Me a Little Bit More

When I was a child
I was alone for a while
the hours stretched out into miles
I felt like I'd die on that isle

Love me a little bit more
than I love you
I know it's not fair
but I need you to
Love me a little bit more

When I lie awake
I relive every mistake
encounters I'll never remake
tremors blown up into quakes

(chorus)

I need security
I need you to hold me up
I need the warm blanket of affection
I need your love

I want to reach out
but I'm overwhelmed with doubt
I'm so used to living without
I don't know what love is about

(chorus)

Love me a little bit more x2 or 3...

Love Me A Little Bit More
by John Kloberdanz

If I were a tall oak tree
And you were a singing bird
You'd share your song with me
Branches hang on every word
And then away you would soar
Would you love me a little bit more

Once on a winter's day
The snow fell through the night
I didn't know what to say
As I waited for morning's light
You were the spring that would restore
Would you love me a little bit more

I try to be everything for you
I want to talk quietly
And ask for patience, forgiveness and hope
Hold my hand, hold my hand honestly

I turned to say goodnight
But you were long asleep
I asked quietly for time
And the Lord your soul to keep
The things that I've been thankful for
You couldn't love me any more

Not even just a little bit more
You couldn't love me a little bit more

Oh baby, stick with me and you don't got much to gain
I'm 'bout as useful as a sinner can be
You know I ain't got much in terms of muscle or fame
But that don't bother you when you're loving me.

And when I'm at my best, oh I can hardly compare
to all those pinstripes down at the bank
But if the only thing you wanted was a mill-i-on-aire
You woulda shot me down point blank

But babe you love me just a little bit more
With every misstep, failure, and bust
Any other girl
Would have turned away in disgust

& babe, I'll stick with you even though you're insane
Through all those times when you are out of your mind
Because I love every inch of you including your brain
Even when you say you wish I were dyin'

'Cause when you're at your best you can beat any gal
And at your worst you'll beat them up just the same
And if I lusted after women at the DAR hall
I would have run when I heard your name

& Babe, I love you just a little bit more
With every breakdown, every cry
Any other man
Would have left without a goodbye

And all those star-crossed lovers who wound up blue
They don't stop me from loving you.

So when you love me a little bit more yes you know
That I love you a little bit more
And when I love you a little bit more baby girl
You know you love me a little bit more

(HARMONICA ENTERS)
OH SHIT IT'S A FALSE ENDING!

And all those star-crossed lovers who wound up blue
They don't stop me from loving you.

somebody left another spoon in the sugar, there's a
roll of cardboard in the bathroom again
I don't know what it means but I'd like to hate you
at least as much as you've been hating on me

what the fuck, who, and a why, and a where
I've got a pointy finger and you're standing right there
but I know that the issues always go both ways
cuz I find myself afraid of you some days

I took the long way around and I slowwed it right down cuz
I didn't want to get home and listen to you growl
The dogs of war are howling at my door and all I
want is you to love me a little bit more
\
you leave your shit laying everywhere
like the green apple splatters how is that even fair
It must have been you that opened up the door, let the
J Dubs in, you're such a motherfucking whore
If it's war I want then it's war I got
because deep down neither of us can handle the kitchen hot
and I know that the issues go both ways
cuz I find myself afraid of you some days
\

Enough is enough.
I can lay my shit aside if you can say that I was right
we could put this war behind us after all look at what divides us
I don't need to cry cuz bygones are bygones and mine are gone
while yours are back in Saigon
Enough is enough.
Sometimes soft but you like it rough
cows in the pastures, looking for answers
thinking of sinking, finding cancers
I like sleep and you like sleep, but we can make our differences meet

Jon Eric and the Transpacific Babble Brigade
Love Me a Little Bit More

You forgot about the counters in my lab coat
One in my right pocket, one in my left
They keep track of the score of this game I referee for
The game we watch each day between life and death

You forgot about the patients on the gurneys
The ones whose lives I save for them each night
You forgot about my good deeds when you broke my fucking heart
You forgot them but that doesn't make it right

You remembered every baseless accusation
Every whisper in my alma mater's halls
And rumors you knew didn't hold one milligram of truth
You told me I don't know myself at all

[chorus:]
You might think of only yourself
You might drink to distraction, to the end of your health
You could die in the hospital door
Wondering why you didn't love me a little bit more

So I dream your pretty face devoid of color
Afflictions of a night of drunken sins
I'm the only doctor in this hospital tonight;
This is where my fantasy begins

I listen to the gurgle of your breathing
Watch your chest, the struggled rise and fall
And I peer into your dilated eyes and see inside
Incapable of any love at all

[chorus]
[solos]
[chorus]
You could die in the hospital door
Wondering why you didn't love me a little bit more

Love Me A Little Bit More

I'd be bending from the saddle
swimming through the ice
on top of sending lillies
and revealing my disguise

But I don't like the way you place your feet.
I don't like the way you place your feet.
So I won't sweep that little bit deeper
And there are glaciers that I won't cross
Some words won't ever ---
for all I can think
all I can't say
is I don't like how you place your feet.

You built me a palace
you built me a church
you built me a hovel
you blew up my porch
and your hands will do no more

I'd be bending from the saddle
swimming through the ice
on top of sending lillies
revealing my disguise

But I don't like that yellow sweater with the shifty-eyed pink flamingo
even at wartime
as you lie shivering at my feet
and I never loved you more.

Love Me a Little Bit More - The Hell Yeahs

You’re hot, I’m bothered
I could use a drink if you could lead me to the water, baby
You’re good, and I’m ready
I could use a little but I haven’t gotten any, so

Monday
Well, I had to get up early
Tuesday
Wasn’t feeling very girly
Wednesday
That’s Locke and Hurley

Don’t know what you’re waiting for
So love me just a little bit

I’m sweet, you’re sour
Maybe we could we could sneak off for a quarter of an hour, honey
You’re zipped, I’m buttoned
Maybe on the weekend we could do a little somethin’ somethin’

Sunday
Got tired out from singin’
Monday
I was all hand-wringin’
Tuesday
Maybe you could put your thing in

Don’t know what you’re waiting for
Come on and love me up a little

Wednesday
Had the best of intentions
Thursday
I don’t even wanna mention
Friday
Need a little monkey wrenchin’

Urges overpowerin’
This inferno’s towerin’
Don’t know what you’re waiting for
So love me just a little bit
More!

Love Me A Little Bit More

By Steve Durand

Some people fall in love at first site
But for some it takes time for love to grow
So it's not the end if you only love me as a friend
'Cause deep in my heart I know

If you love me a little bit more today than yesterday
Some day you'll love me just as much as I love you

I won't give up hope that someday you'll be mine
Even though someone else may be your beau
I'll nurture that seed 'till I finally succeed
Like a bud blossoms into a rose

If you love me a little bit more today than yesterday
Some day you'll love me just as much as I love you

Love Me a Little Bit More
as performed by Durand Durand
Song by Ross Durand - horns arranged and performed by Steve Durand

Well babe you know I’m not a very complicated man
Just open up your eyes and you can see who I am
And I don’t hold no illusions about the women in my life
I know were all just doing what we need to survive
And though I know it’s better to give than to receive
There’s just three little things I ask if you would do for me

Love me
Love me a little
Love me a little bit more

Well we cannot live on bread alone or even words from above
To get us through this life you know we need a little love
And I know you need it too I’m sure I could be the one
To bring you from the darkness to the light of the sun
So please just do these three things if joy is to be found
And it’s bound to be good, cause what goes round comes a round

Love me
Love me a little
Love me a little bit more

And if you’ll love me just a little than you’ll see what you might miss
And if you love me a little more then we’ll have a taste of bliss
It’s not very complicated, no it’s simple just like me
But lets simply try it out to see how great our love can be
So baby let’s get started cause we’ve got a lot to do
And I’m sure that pretty soon I’ll hear these words form you

Love me
Love me a little
Love me a little bit more

Love Me A Little Bit More - Maggie Kanuka

If you’re lost in the rain
Call me up, I’ll be there.
It’s enough just to be
Any time, anywhere.

In this storm we call love
there are laughs, there is pain.
Without trust, without friends
there’s no point, there’s no gain.

You don’t have to be my Superman
Just let me be your Lois Lane for
We’ve got the best friend part down
Just love me a little bit more.

Flames burning bright
With a love that catches fire.
Friendship growing, yet there’s fear
Fear of hurt mixed with desire.

Don’t seek love let love find you.
That’s why it’s called falling in love.
When you do, when you fall
I’ll be your net, be your dove.

You don’t have to be my Superman
Just let me be your Lois Lane for
We’ve got the best friend part down
Just love me a little bit more.

I have lived my three Acts
Out of five and now it’s time
I will be on the ledge
And with you, it’s sublime.

Now it’s all up to you
The choice is yours but make it soon.
I’ve been hurt twice before
But I’d never hurt you.

You don’t have to be my Superman
Just let me be your Lois Lane for
We’ve got the best friend part down
Just love me a little bit more.

You don’t have to be my Superman
Just let me be your Lois Lane for
We’ve got the best friend part down
Just love me a little bit more.
