The Rest of My Life
Eternal Love's Promise: The Rest of My Life's Meaning Unveiled
Lyrics
I know you're heard the excuses before
I acknowledge that you have heard excuses in the past.
So I won't waste your time and I'll keep this short
I won't waste your time, and I'll keep this message brief.
I've bound my emotions 'cause I can't afford to be wrong
I've suppressed my emotions because I cannot afford to be wrong.
I know we've talked about being good friends
We have discussed the idea of being good friends.
So we've been real careful of the signals we've sent
We have been cautious about the signals we send to each other.
But all of your glances they came and the went to my head
Your meaningful glances affected me emotionally.
And I'm not a man to throuw words to the wind
I don't casually speak without meaning what I say.
When I said "I love you" that's what I meant
When I expressed "I love you," I truly meant it.
And I plan to show you if it takes me the rest of my life
I intend to demonstrate my love, even if it takes the rest of my life.
The rest of my life
Reiteration: The rest of my life.
The rest of my life
-I don't want to rush this cause my greatest fear
I don't want to hurry this relationship because my greatest fear is taking it for granted after years of building.
is taking for granted what's taken us years
Expressing concern about not appreciating the effort and time invested in the relationship.
To build from the ground up with all of the tears that we cried
We built our relationship from the ground up, overcoming challenges and tears.
We've taken our time and for this I'm so glad
We took our time, and I'm grateful for that.
Now we can be sure that this moment will last
Assurance that the current moment is significant and lasting.
We've traveled a road of mistakes in our past to get her
We've faced and learned from mistakes in our past to be together.
And I'm not about to throw words to the wind
Reiteration: I don't speak without meaning it.
When I said "I love you" that's what I meant
Reassurance: When I said "I love you," I meant it.
And I'm going to show you if it takes me the rest of my life
I am committed to demonstrating my love, no matter how long it takes.
The rest of my life
Reiteration: The rest of my life.
The rest of my life
-And I'm not a man to throw words to the wind
Reiteration: I don't speak without meaning it.
When I said "I love you" well, that's what I meant
Reassurance: When I said "I love you," I meant it.
And I plan to show you if it takes me the rest of my life
I am committed to demonstrating my love, no matter how long it takes.
