LeAnn Rimes, How do I live

Is it a love song or break up song?

Both OH & I really like the song, but we're not sure how people would take it as our first song :o

    I wasn't sure to be honest and couldn't remember all the lyrics, so I googled them and I'd say most definitely it is NOT a break up song!

    The bit in bold is wondering about what would happen and, not talking about what has happened.

    Without you, there'd be no sun in my sky
    There would be no love in my life
    There'd be no world left for me
    And I, oh Baby, I don't know what I would do
    I'd be lost if I lost you
    If you ever leave
    Baby you would take away everything real in my life
    And tell me now


    If you both love the song then go for it! x

    I checked the lyrics as I think that they're very borderline.

    I decided it was a break-up song because in my head it sounds like she's begging him to stay. But I wouldn't think it's a weird choice.
    I love surprises!
