Lyrics

Life goes on

Life continues despite challenges or changes.

Nothing is new

There is a sense of routine, and nothing significant has changed.

Judge made it clear

A legal authority has communicated a clear directive.

I can't be near you

The speaker is prohibited from being in close proximity to someone.

Everybody knows that I'm not a violent man

The speaker asserts a non-violent nature despite the situation.

Just someone who knows he's in love

The speaker recognizes being in love but not a violent individual.


I made mistakes

The speaker acknowledges making mistakes, a universal experience.

Everyone does

Emphasizes the commonality of errors in everyone's life.

Don't know why I did

Uncertainty about the reasons behind the mistakes.

I guess just because

Actions may be impulsive or lacking a clear rationale.

No one gets through to me the way that you do

No one connects with the speaker in the same profound way.

Now I know I'm in love

Realization of being in love with the mentioned person.


Baby, it's a little much

Expressing the difficulty of not being physically close to the loved one.

To never touch you

The challenge of refraining from physical contact.

When I know I'll never

Acknowledging the uniqueness of the current love.

Find another love like this

The speaker recognizes the difficulty of finding a comparable love.


Life goes on

Reiteration of the ongoing nature of life.

Nothing is new

Emphasizes the lack of significant changes in life.

Passing the days

Passing time while thoughts are consumed by the person in question.

Thinking 'bout you

Continued reflection on the forbidden relationship.

Everybody knows that I'm not a violent man

Reiteration of the speaker's non-violent nature in contrast to love.

Just someone who knows he's in love

Reiteration of recognizing being in love without violence.
