Beware My Love Lyrics

Can't say I've found out,
I can't tell you
what's all about.

Don't know who does,
I tell you to
Beware, my love.
Beware, my love.
Beware, my love.
Beware, my love.
Beware, my love.
Beware, my love.

Oh, oh, oh,
No, no, no.
I must be wrong, baby, yeah.

But I don't believe that he's the one,
But if you insist,
I must be wrong, I must be wrong,
I have to leave,
And when I'm gone,
I'll leave my message in my song,
That's right.

Beware, my love,
He'll bowl you over.
Beware, my love,
Before you're much older,
He'll sweep you up under his carpet.

You'd be in luck if you could stop it.
Come on, now.

Well, he'll wear you out,
and in a miniute,
you'll hear a shout,
and then you'll be in it.

So, so beware my love,
'cause he'll take you under.
Beware, my love,
the sound of his thunder;

Can't say (I've) found out.
I tell you to
Beware, my love.
Beware, my love.
Beware, my love.
Beware, my love.

No comments on this great song yet? Okay, I'll be the first. I don't think there's any hidden meaning - I think he is telling either a friend, or an ex-lover to be careful of their partner - he will hurt you.

Great rocker. Paul with a raspy voice (sorta like Oh Darling! bur 'rockier'). Great bass and rock groove with bookends of a little acoustic piece heavy on Linda's vocals.

It's a well crafted song. The warning in the lyrics suits the tension that is built up and released several times in the music well. Only the best tunesmiths can weld such a song.

I always assumed this was directed at one of his daughters...

What I heard. But I have forgotten where from. Was that Linda's ex told her not to marry Paul, that he wasn't right for her and that she wouldn't be able to keep up with his intensity. That he'd wear her out, or something along those lines. So Pauls using a double meaning 'Beware my Love'. As in look out Linda that man is too much for you, but ironically Paul is the man so it's literally his love she ought to beware.
