Time After Time
Lucky in Love: Ella Fitzgerald's Timeless Melody of Enduring Devotion
Lyrics
Time after time you'll hear me say
Expressing a repeated acknowledgment that the speaker will communicate a particular sentiment over time.
That I'm so lucky to be loving you
Acknowledging a sense of fortune or gratitude for the opportunity to love the addressed person.
Time after time, I tell myself
Reiterating the speaker's internal affirmation of being fortunate to love the addressed individual.
That I'm so lucky to be loving you
Affirming the speaker's perceived luck in the act of loving the addressed person.
So lucky to be the one you run to see
Expressing the speaker's feeling of being fortunate to be the one the addressed person turns to in the evening.
In the evening when the day is through
Describing the specific time, in the evening when the day concludes, when the addressed person seeks the speaker.
I only know what I know
Conveying the speaker's limited knowledge about the situation or relationship.
The passing years will show
Anticipating that the passage of time will reveal the nature and depth of the speaker's love.
You've kept my love so young, so new
Highlighting that the addressed person has maintained the speaker's love in a youthful and fresh state.
And time after time you'll hear me say
Repeating the sentiment of feeling fortunate to love the addressed person, emphasizing its recurrence.
That I'm so lucky to be loving you
Restating the gratitude or sense of luck associated with loving the addressed individual.
I only know what I know
Reiterating the speaker's acknowledgment of their limited knowledge and emphasizing the role of time in revealing truths.
The passing years will show
Continuing the theme of time's role in revealing the depth of the speaker's love.
You've kept my love so young, so new
Re-emphasizing that the addressed person has preserved the speaker's love in a youthful and new state over time.
And time after time you'll hear me say
Restating the recurring sentiment of feeling fortunate or lucky to love the addressed person.
That I'm so lucky to be loving you
Reaffirming the speaker's sense of luck or gratitude in the act of loving the addressed individual.
Time after time you'll hear me say
Repeating the idea of expressing, over time, the feeling of being fortunate to love the addressed person.
That I'm so lucky to be loving you
Affirming, once again, the speaker's sense of luck or fortune in loving the addressed individual.
Just you, just you
Emphasizing the exclusivity of the addressed person as the subject of the speaker's love.
