I wrote this in the other thread but I think you guys should see it.
For those who didn't get the song,
He is her lover, but she still loves him as a brother as she cares for him and wants the best for him;
Quote:
You are my lover
But I love you like a brother
|
Quote:
You know that i'mma do whatever i'm not gon leave
This kind of love don't come easy
We don't care what they think
Promise we'll stay the same
Say that you stay right here for me
|
Then she says that even she knows that he likes being around other chicks and looking at their asses, she doesn't mind because at the end of the day he is who he is and she loves that about him, and that's why she says:
Quote:
Don't ask, 'cause I know you're gonna lie,
You're way too sexy to ever be shy
|
She's not gonna ask him about why he keeps checking out the girls because she knows he is gonna lie about it, but she doesn't mind because he is way too sexy to not look to act shy.
And then she explains furthermore their relationship through the third verse:
Quote:
And I know what you thinking of
That I don't know a thing about love
But what I know is i'm his girl
And he's the one for me
See this sh-t ain't worth tripping over
Do you thing, it doesn't matter
As long as we gon' rock forever
Love is all we need
|
Long story short, many couples try to change other things they don't like about each other, and one of the most common thing in relationship is jealousy. But this song reflects the opposite, as Rihanna says that
she knows what her man does, but she knows that at the end they're meant for eachother, and she doesn't want to change anything about him because he's perfect that way, and this kind of love and understatement ('brotherly love') doesn't come as easy as people think.
