Confused. What is "Just Luv Me" About?

[BS2011]

I've been reading the lyrics and I just can't figure it out...

She wants to be loved, nothing else? But I don't understand why she says "you could ask me for a sorry?"

[Intro]
Just luv me (just luv me)
Just luv me

[Verse 1]
I'm not gonna ask for a sip when I'm thirsty
And you don't have to hold my hand when I'm hurting
Won't make you sober me up when I'm turning
And you don't gotta say it, I know that I'm worthy

 

[Pre-Chorus]
You could ask me for a sorry(?)
Let it calm before the storm
Ask for pieces of my body
Until all of it is yours

[Chorus]
But I'm not gonna ask you for nothing
Just luv me, just luv me
I'ma keep it simple, real simple
Just luv me, just luv me
I'm not gonna ask you for nothing
Just luv me, just luv me
I'ma keep it simple, real simple
Just luv me, just luv me, just luv me

[Verse 2]
If you think that I'm saying that because I'm high maintenance
Like I'm trying to mask every problem that I'm facing
Well you're wrong cause I don't need nobody when I'm breaking
All I need is your love and a little bit of patience

[Pre-Chorus]
You could ask me for a sorry
Let it calm before the storm
Ask for pieces of my body
Until all of it is yours

[Chorus]
But I'm not gonna ask you for nothing
Just luv me, just luv me
I'ma keep it simple, real simple
Just luv me, just luv me
I'm not gonna ask you for nothing
Just luv me, just luv me
I'ma keep it simple, real simple
Just luv me, just luv me, just luv me

I'm not gonna ask you for nothing
Just luv me
I'm not gonna ask you for nothing
Just luv me

[Bridge]
Oh no, I won't, I promise, I promise
Oh no, I won't ask you for nothing
Oh no, I won't, I promise, I promise
I promise, I promise

[Chorus]
But I'm not gonna ask you for nothing
Just luv me, just luv me
I'ma keep it simple, real simple
Just luv me, just luv me
I'm not gonna ask you for nothing
Just luv me, just luv me
I'ma keep it simple, real simple
Just luv me, just luv me, just luv me

[Outro]
Oh no, I won't, I promise, I promise
Oh no, I won't ask you for nothing
Oh no, I won't, I promise, I promise
I promise, I promise
I'm not gonna ask you for nothing
Just luv me (Just luv me)

ABOUT ME 

[Bawbby.]

She's telling her lover that she's not going to be complicated, that she won't ask him for much, all she wants is his love

[D_Britfan]

Its talking about how she knows she has problems, but she just needs the guy to love her, she doesnt need him to hold her hand when shes hurting, all she needs is his love and his patience...its not that hard to understand surely?

I don't get the "You could ask me for a sorry" line....

 

why is he asking her for a sorry? is she apologizing for loving him?

If you read what i just posted youd get it.

[It'sBeenAWhile]

I think she's saying, her lover can do all that he wants and ask her of things (ask her for a 'sorry', pieces of her body) but when it comes to her love for him, all she wants is for him to love her. In other words, it doesn't matter to her if her lover's love is more demanding or complicated, but for her, she's going to keep it 'simple' - all she needs is love.

[softskeleton]

She isn't going to ask for anything, just for the guy to love her. Real simple like that.

I think this song is about the miscommunicated needs of two people.

the guy thinks shes needy, shes problematic, shes annoying.

but the truth is, she just wants love unconditionally. Theres no baggages attached to love. Which is a very naive/romantic way to look at love. However this is why Britney is magic.

the guy on the other hand is demanding and a *****. He wants her to apologize for being 'complicated'

he also wants *** and wants everything from her hence "pieces of my body" "until it is all urs" but britney in this case doesnt mind.

But all she wants is just love and patience ( maybe she has her own demons to deal with) but hes unable to cope. So basically she wants nothing more than his love, but hes more demanding

 

its a MASTERPIECE

Exactly.

If you (the OP) are confused about the "ask my for a sorry" line, I think the idea is that she if offering him anything he wants and is asking for very little in return.

Oh wow. that's deep. I love it.

 

Whats the "let it calm before the storm" line?

[Nickey]

She's Brinty Spreas. She wants to be loved and touched.

The calm before the storm refers to the empty, nice and quiet period before the hectic, chaotic period comes. So it could either be let us enjoy this nice peaceful period before us fighting and breaking up.

or

lets chill and think things thru in a calm uncomplicated way.

or

let things flow naturally. Like let A comes before B. theres no need for disrupting things and make a mess.

or it is a metaphor about having patience.

plz let the ******* calm come first and then the storm will come. Stop rushing for the storm to come immediately. This fits with the patience line
