“I’d Rather Be In Love” is the ninth track off Michelle Branch’s debut album, The Spirit Room.
Lyrically, the song is about heartbreak and longing. Branch describes her adolescent angst towards an individual and how she feels “whole” with them, but without them she feels alone, so she’d rather be i...
[Verse 1]
I cannot help it
I couldn't stop it if I tried
The same old heartbeat
Fills the emptiness
I have inside
And I've heard that you can't fight love, so I won't complain
'Cause why would I stop the fire that keeps me going on?
[Chorus]
'Cause when there's you, I feel whole
And there's no better feeling in the world
But without you, I'm alone
And I'd rather be in love with you
[Verse 2]
Turn out the lights now
To see is to believe
I just want you near me
I just want you here with me
And I'd give up everything only for you
It's the least that I could do
[Chorus]
'Cause when there's you, I feel whole (I feel whole)
And there's no better feeling in the world
But without you, I'm alone (I'm alone)
And I'd rather be in love with you
And I feel you holding me
[Bridge]
Why are we afraid to be in love?
To be loved?
I can't explain it
I know it's tough to be loved
And I feel you holding me
Oh, oh
[Chorus]
And when there's you, I feel whole
(I feel whole)
And there's no better feeling in the world
But without you, I'm alone
And I'd rather be in love
'Cause when there's you, I feel whole (I feel whole)
And there's no better feeling in the world
(And there's no better feeling in the world)
I'm alone
And I'd rather be in love
Yes, I'd rather be in love
Oh, I'd rather be in love with you
And I feel you holding me
Whoa
