Love Me Two Times - The Doors Lyrics

Love me two times, baby
Love me twice today
Love me two times, girl
I'm goin' away
Love me two times, girl
One for tomorrow
One just for today
Love me two times
I'm goin' away

Love me one time
I could not speak
Love me one time
Yeah, my knees got weak
But love me two times, girl
Last me all through the week
Love me two times
I'm goin' away
Love me two times
I'm goin' away

Oh, yes

Love me one time
I could not speak
Love me one time, baby
Yeah, my knees got weak
But love me two times, girl
Last me all through the week
Love me two times
I'm goin' away

Love me two times, babe
Love me twice today
Love me two times, babe
'Cause I'm goin' away
Love me two time, girl
One for tomorrow
One just for today
Love me two times
I'm goin' away
Love me two times
I'm goin' away
Love me two times
I'm goin' away

Guitarist Robbie Krieger wrote the lyrics. They are about The Doors going on the road and American soldiers going to Vietnam.
Through most of the song, Jim Morrison left off the "s" in "two times," creating a double meaning to the phrase.
The guitar in this is more pronounced than in most Doors songs.
Continues the theme on Strange Days of an uncertain future. It continues the story of the estranged lover from "You're Lost Little Girl."
Released as a single. Critics claimed this was written purely to generate a pop hit.
Presents sex as a way to survive in strange times.
Morrison's arrest in New Haven, combined with the suggestive lyrics, prompted some radio stations to ban this.
Left over from recording sessions from The Doors first album.
Krieger and Ray Manzarek recorded this with Aerosmith for the 2000 Doors tribute album Stoned Immaculate.
In 2000, the surviving members of the Doors taped a VH1 Storytellers episode with guest vocalists filling in for Morrison. Pat Monahan sang on this.
