Love on Top Lyrics

Honey honey I can see the stars all the way from here Can't you see the glow on the window pane I can feel the sun whenever you're near Everytime you touch me I just melt away Now everybody ask me why I'm smiling from ear to ear (they say love hurts) But I know (it's gonna take the real work) Nothing's perfect but it's worth it after fighting through my tears And finally you put me first Baby it's you You're the one I love You're the one I need You're the only one I see Come on baby it's you You're the one that gives your all You're the one I can always call When I need to make everything stop Finally you put my love on top Ooh come on baby You put my love on top top top top top You put my love on top Ooh ooh Come on baby You put my love on top top top top top You put my love on top My love on top Baby I can hear the wind whipping past my face As he turns the night away And boy your look it tastes like a night of champagne As I kiss you again and again and again and again Now everybody ask me why I'm smiling from ear to ear (they say love hurts) But I know (it's gonna take the real work) Nothing's perfect but it's worth it after fighting through my tears And finally you put me first Baby it's you You're the one I love You're the one I need You're the only one I see Come on baby it's you You're the one that gives your all You're the one I can always call When I need to make everything stop Finally you put my love on top Ooh come on baby You put my love on top top top top top You put my love on top Ooh ooh Come on baby You put my love on top top top top top You put my love on top My love on top Baby it's you You're the one I love You're the one I need You're the only thing I see Come on baby it's you You're the one that gives your all You're the one that always calls When I need you baby everything stops Finally you put my love on top Baby you're the one that I love Baby you're all I need You're the only one I see Come on baby it's you You're the one that gives your all You're the one that always calls When I need you everything stops Finally you put my love on top Baby cause you're the one that I love Baby you're the one that I need You're the only one that I see Ooh baby baby it's you You're the one that gives your all You're the one that always calls When I need you everything stops Finally you put my love on top Baby cause you're the one that I love Baby you're the one that I need You're the only one I see Ooh baby baby it's you You're the one that gives your all You're the one that always calls When I need you everything stops Finally you put my love...

Initially, the lyrics evoke a sense of yearning and awe – “I can see the stars all the way from here,” – suggesting a transformative experience where this individual has elevated her perspective entirely. The repeated affirmation, "You put my love on top," isn’t simply about romantic gestures; it's a declaration that this partner actively elevates her happiness and well-being to the highest priority. The acknowledgment of “fighting through my tears” reveals a past struggle, highlighting the vulnerability and work involved in achieving this newfound equilibrium. Beyoncé masterfully dismantles the cynical notion that love inevitably causes pain, asserting instead that "it's gonna take the real work," emphasizing commitment and perseverance.

The sensual imagery—"boy your look it tastes like a night of champagne"—further emphasizes the intoxicating nature of this renewed romance.
