Even Love Needs a Holiday

When I think of that line I kind of think of the people as still in a relationship but just needing time away from each other. It doesn't have to mean breaking up or going a long time separated. I just think it means that with love, you need to take time to do something yourself and let your partner do the same. Things can get tense if you're always together and never do anything with friends or other people. Even though you love each other it's still important to have a night with friends every once in a while. Doing that doesn't mean you don't enjoy being with the other person or not love them.

I don't know the context of the rest of the song, but I can tell you what I interpret this line to mean being in a long term devoted relationship. For me, I have a hard time being with my husband every minute of every day. I think of the time that we are apart, be it at work, out with friends or whatever to be our holiday from each other. I see that couples that spend time apart regularly are generally happier couples.

Having a relationship is like having a full time job. All needs holiday specially if you felt tired about it. If a person think that he cannot handle anymore the situation and he wanted to file a vacation or a sick leave, he can do it like what they did on their regular job. That lines remind me after few days of break up and wanted to move on.

This was a song originally written by Chicago, I think the line was, "Even lovers needs a holiday, far away from each other". Personally I think that maybe a breather but not a total holiday. Some time to be with self, not because you are feedup (or maybe) but more on giving the relationship a refresher. One can get some perspective on some other things of interest. I don't mean that you have to be involve with somebody (that's a different story). It is more of looking life as a whole. Maybe go out with right friends, or do something of a hobby.

On the contrary,I don't think this line is for people who just came from break up,in my opinion,I think this line can be interpret that love will miss gradually little by little when time goes by,so when lover go apart for some days then they will miss each other more so that it can keep their love fresh in this way.

For me "Even Love Needs a Holiday" also implies to status of in a relationship. Just like what I am experiencing right now with my current partner there are times that whenever there are things that we can't fixed a fight with just one or two days we both know that we just needed a break or that's what I call holiday. Holiday to be apart from one another. There are time that we don't know how to discuss things immediately to fix the problem so we need space to think of what really matters and why we can't understand each other. It is like a holiday from work right? Employees needs holidays for them to relax, pause, enjoy things that has nothing to do with work no due dates no boss etc. and after a day or two you have to go back to work with a more stress free mood and relax feeling. Sometimes we needs HOLIDAY... Happy Mylotting! ^_^

Well, I think your take on it is the only one that makes sense. I've seen relationships of folks who go from relationship to relationship and it never seems to pan out.

Yeah I guess that is what is meant by the song. It is not right that you immeidately jump into a new relationship after a breakup. One must learn to start moving on loving oneself first before finding a new love. That is the perfect time to love again.

I think that this line can be related to couples in relationship as well. In my experience, I realized that having a time away from my girlfriend makes us miss each other more and the moment we meet, we become more passionate and loving with each other. It is also true that there are times that we need to see new or different surrounding so as to let things grow dull. I guess it is just human nature, the way some things become simply normal when you get so used to it.

Hello rberon, I don't think Love needs a holiday at all, though your "Heart need a break" (demi lovato) from loving some one. but you can never put it in a holiday. remember, love also yourself, family and friends never stops. so, my point of view is loving a woman for a relationship can be tiring and much put effort. i think you need a break from doing that kind of love until the heart is ready again

This could also relate to those who are in a relationship. Space is what this sentence is talking about I feel. Being close all the time could lead to the relationship becoming stale. Just a thought.

I believed on that thing that even love needs a holiday. Especially if came from a painful breakup your heart needs to take some rest also.

For me, it is after breaking up... Take a vacation to rest and not think of anything but yourself... :)

I like that song too. It mesmerizes me sometimes in the past. It actually the phrase that says "even love needs a holiday" probably depends on whom are you loving and living with. There are loving that really stressful too, specially those that are complicated. The songs is for those that are busy loving but doesn't get the love they deserve in return. Even love needs a holiday just apply to human love co's with God's love is doesn't like that. WE love Him back or not... He still love us and keep on waiting that we love Him back. Yeah the song probably is for moving on too.

with knowing what the song is about it could be many things. It could also mean, two people who love each other may just need a little time away from each other.

It's "even lovers need a holiday, far away from each other".

I think the song 'Hard to say I am sorry' is a love song telling his lover that although it is hard for him to say sorry to her (He must have done something she was not happy about), he will 'make it up to' her as he is so crazily in love with her that he can not stand a day without having her around. As for the line 'Even lovers need a holiday', my interpretation is that sometimes some couples are so in love with each other to the extend that everything about both of them regardless of big or small are taken as their common responsibilities. After sometime, one of the couple may feel that he/she has lesser breathing space and his/her privacy compromised or invaded. This is especially so if one of the partners is more dominating and overly zealous. For me, love is like one of the lines in the song: 'You're just a part of me i can't let go'. So there is no 'even lovers need a holiday' to me. My love for my loved one is 7/24 and 365 days of the year.

I agree, even with kids everyone needs a break. Gives us time to regroup and gather ones thought. Thanks for the great post today.

Wow. I think it's real :D haha lol I'm in a holiday and it's actually an indefinite leave lol! It's started after the break up. I can say I've moved on now. So this holiday of mine is not about moving on anymore but it's because I have different priorities at the moment.:D But if it comes soon and proves to be real, then I'd have it again on my priority list! cheers xD

Sounds like someone did something they regret and are giving a reason behind why they did it.
