I'm in You

Peter Frampton

I don't care where I go when I'm with you
When I cry you don't laugh cause you know me

I'm in you
You're in me
You gave me the love, the love that I never had

You and I don't pretend; we make love
I can't feel anymore than I'm singing

I'm in you
You're in me
You gave me the love, the love that I never had

Come so far when you think
you think back
You can't buy what we made, you and I

I'm in you
You're in me
You gave me the love, the love that I never had

    Beautiful - long live simple love songs! Or is it? He seems to go back and forth in time - "I'm ,IN you" would seem to be about a Current r/s but "she GAVE me the love", and "You con die but remain you and I" seem to indicate that his loved one has died, but the love lives on for him. Interesting that the song finishes with "I don't care where I go..." His tears go on, she can't mock from the grave...

    An equally valid interpretation - He lives and thrives in her honesty and acceptance. ("when I cry you don't laugh" & "you & I don't pretend - we make love") This is contrasted to a previous love who also gave him the love he never had. This love is real, 'cause she KNOWS him, in every sense...

    Hadn't heard this one in a long time and caught it today on Sirius. He does appear to time shift, but I think he is talking about the great love of that one person who meant everything to him.

    This was parodied by Frank Zappa in his song "I Have Been in You": songmeanings.net/songs/view/3530822107858668479/ Slightly more risque than Frampton's version!!
