If That Ain’t Love
    Words and Music:  Anne-Marie Fraser, Gary Clute

[Instrumental]

[Verse]
If I never told you how I feel about you
you should know
I play my cards close to my chest
and my words can come out slow
You think that I don’t notice
You think that I don’t see
But your kind of easy loving is just what works for me.

[Chorus]
You’re my
one in a million, you’re my silver lining, my feels-so-good that I can't stop smiling
You're a heart full of soul and laughter and forgiveness
and if that ain’t love, well I don't know what is.
if that ain’t love, well I don't know what is.


[Verse]
It’s the little things that make my Everyday
that I adore
You read me right and tell it straight
and that, I can’t ignore
You got me on this journey
I’ll take it to the end
and I’ll be your sweetheart, lover and ever-lasting friend.

 
[Bridge]
You’re my bright sky after the rain
my deepest pocket when I’m out of change
You let me be who I want to be
The only person who sets me free

[Chorus]
You’re my
one in a million, you’re my silver lining, my feels-so-good that I can't stop smiling
You're a heart full of soul and laughter and forgiveness
and if that ain’t love, well I don't know what is.
if that ain’t love, well I don't know what is.

[Instrumental]

[Outro]
You’re my
one in a million, you’re my silver lining, my feels-so-good that I can't stop smiling
You're a heart full of soul and laughter and forgiveness
and if that ain’t love, well I don't know what is.
if that ain’t love, well I don't know what is.

Title: You’re My Shadow 

[Verse]
You stand beside me never swayin'
In the darkest times you ain't playin'
You're the sun when clouds are grayin'
In my heart you'll always be stayin'

[Verse]
Through the storm you keep the light
In your eyes I see what's right
Even when the world's uptight
You're my day and my night

[Chorus]
You're the song my soul keeps singin'
Every note your love is bringin'
In your warmth my heart is clingin'
To you my shadow always swingin'

[Bridge]
Even when the road gets rocky
Every step you take so cocky
You're the lock and you're the key
You mean the world to me

[Verse]
When I'm down and feelin' broken
Your touch is more than just a token
In every word that you have spoken
I hear love
It's never broken

[Chorus]
You're the song my soul keeps singin'
Every note your love is bringin'
In your warmth my heart is clingin'
To you my shadow always swingin'

THE POETICS OF ‘LOVE LIGHT’: Imagery and Emotion.


Genres: Country and Reggae


The lyrics of "Love Light" offer a rich tapestry of romantic imagery and poetic expression.

Imagery and Symbolism.

The song employs colorful imagery such as "silver flakes of Moonlight dancing on the ocean" and the metaphor of love as a guiding light. These images invite the listener into a dreamy, almost surreal environment where emotions are expressed through natural elements.

Love Light: Acts as both a literal and metaphorical guide through darkness, symbolizing hope and connection in lonely times.  

Celestial Elements: 
References to the sun, moonlight, and stars create an ethereal atmosphere that reinforces the transient and delicate nature of love.

Conversational Tone:  
The song is structured as a dialogue with the "beautiful lady," establishing an intimate connection between the speaker and the listener. This personal tone draws the audience into the narrative, making it feel like a heartfelt conversation rather than a distant ode.

- Temporal Flow:  
  The progression from night to morning and back to memories of sunsets illustrates the passage of time, emphasizing both the fleeting nature of moments and the desire for them to last. This flow adds emotional depth and highlights the transient beauty of love.

Emotional Dynamics

- Promise and Commitment:  
  The pledge to "hold forever" and the offer to "weave our dreams together" reflect a strong sense of commitment and hope. The lyrics balance the idealism of eternal love with the recognition of life’s ephemeral moments.

- Reflective Nostalgia:  
  Lines like "In your eyes, I see stories of a life well lived" evoke a sense of bittersweet nostalgia, celebrating the past while remaining rooted in hope for the future. This duality enriches the emotional texture of the song.

"Love Light" presents a compelling blend of romantic imagery, heartfelt storytelling, and musical nuance. Its strength lies in the evocative use of symbolism and the intimate narrative style that invites listeners to experience love as both a fleeting moment and an eternal promise.
