You can walk through fire
Make the north wind blow
Squeeze ‘n’ tease me honey
When you shake your body
You move my soul
Let me be your lover
Won’t you let me be your child
Take me through your universe
Y’know that when you smile
You drive me wild

Love child
Driving me wild
Love child
Always teasin’ me

You can ride your pony
Day dream in fairy tales
All I know is I need more
When I see you dance the seven veils

About Lyrics and Love Child by Deep Purple

When you decide to study the lyrics to Love Child, you're looking at the words, verses and background chorus from the 1975 song by Deep Purple. Some of the lyrics to Love Child have clear meanings and some contain metaphorical references. Like most songs, only Deep Purple and their collaborators know the full story behind any of the their songs.

You can understand the lyrics to Love Child if you take apart the structure of the words. The word "lyric" itself derives from the Latin word lyricus, with the actual English word lyrics applied to the definition "words set to music" listed in Stainer and Barrett's 1876 Dictionary of Musical Terms. Continuing the chain, the Latin word lyricus derives from the Greek word λυρικός or lyrikós. This somewhat means "poetry accompanied by the lyre" or "words set to music." You can easily see that by looking at the background of the word lyric, that the "lyrics to Love Child" means the words set to the music of Love Child, or poetry accompanied by the lyre played by Deep Purple. The singular form "lyric" is still used to mean the complete words to a song. However, the singular form lyric is also commonly used to refer to a specific line (or phrase) within a song's lyrics. Hence, by this analysis of word structure, you could say that the lyric to Love Child and the lyrics to Love Child are both one and the same thing. None of this talk about the word Lyrics is really relevant to fans of Deep Purple who came here looking just for the lyrics to Love Child, but we feel it is still fun to learn what's behind commonly used words and lyrics in songs.
