Love Her Madly
The Doors · L.A. Woman [1971]
Don't you love her madly
Don't you need her badly
Don't you love her ways
Tell me what you say
Don't you love her madly
Wanna be her daddy
Don't you love her face
Don't you love her as
She's walkin' out the door
Like she did one thousand times before
Don't you love her ways
Tell me what you say
Don't you love her as
She's walkin' out the door
All your love(4x)
All your love is gone
So sing a lonely song
Of a deep blue dream
Seven horses seem
To be on the mark
(Organ solo)
Yeah dont you love her
Dont you love her as
she is walking down the door
All your love(3x) Yeah
All your love is gone
So sing a lonely song
Of a deepest dreams
Seven horses seem
To be on the mark
Dont you love her madly(3x)
Don't you need her badly
Don't you love her ways
Tell me what you say
Don't you love her madly
Wanna be her daddy
Don't you love her face
Don't you love her as
She's walkin' out the door
Like she did one thousand times before
Don't you love her ways
Tell me what you say
Don't you love her as
She's walkin' out the door
All your love(4x)
All your love is gone
So sing a lonely song
Of a deep blue dream
Seven horses seem
To be on the mark
(Organ solo)
Yeah dont you love her
Dont you love her as
she is walking down the door
All your love(3x) Yeah
All your love is gone
So sing a lonely song
Of a deepest dreams
Seven horses seem
To be on the mark
Dont you love her madly(3x)
Love Her Madly
As a centerpiece on The Doors' 1971 album L.A. Woman, "Love Her Madly" exemplifies the band's shift toward a heavier, blues-infused rock sound. The track features Jim Morrison's distinctive vocal delivery, blending poetic lyricism with the group's signature interplay between lead vocals and the electric guitar. Recorded during the band's final studio sessions before their disbandment, the song captures the raw energy and existential themes characteristic of their later work. It stands as a testament to The Doors' ability to fuse psychedelic experimentation with gritty, soulful rock, cementing their legacy as pioneers of the genre.
