I Can't Stop Now
In Too Deep: A Love That Won't Quit
Lyrics
Every time I'm away I think about you
Expressing the longing and thoughts about someone while being away.
I wish that you were near me
Desiring the physical presence of the person being thought about.
Gets so bad at times I talk to myself
Feeling the emotional strain, leading to self-conversation, and wishing the other person could hear.
I wish that you could hear me.
Expressing a desire for the other person to be aware of these inner thoughts.
I get to thinking how it all started out, and I know, oh I know
Reflecting on the beginning of the relationship and acknowledging awareness that it may not last forever.
It may not last forever
Acknowledging the impermanence of things but emphasizing the present moment.
But in the meantime when the goin' is good, I know, oh I know
Recognizing the importance of being together during good times.
That we should be together.
Reiterating the idea that the two individuals should be together.
You gave me everything and then some more
Expressing gratitude for the abundance provided by the other person.
When I was cold you opened up the door
Recalling moments of care and warmth extended by the person during difficult times.
Don't want to stop I couldn't anyhow
Expressing a reluctance to stop the positive momentum in the relationship.
You know I'm in too deep and I can't stop now.
Conveying a sense of being deeply involved and unable to halt the emotional commitment.
When I come home I know I don't ever have much to say
Acknowledging a lack of words but expressing contentment in being present at home.
I'm just glad to be there
Emphasizing the joy of being together and not needing extensive conversation.
You ask about the people I've met and the places I've been
Responding to inquiries about experiences by someone close.
You ask me what I see there.
Being questioned about observations and impressions during travels.
I see you, I see you everywhere I go
Noticing the presence of the person everywhere, symbolizing a strong emotional connection.
I see you all around me
Feeling the constant influence and companionship of the person in various settings.
On a ship, on a train, on a plane, no matter where I am
Highlighting the ubiquity of the person's love, regardless of the mode of travel.
I feel your love surround me.
Sensing the encompassing nature of love, creating a feeling of being surrounded.
You gave me everything and then some more
Reiterating the appreciation for the abundance provided by the person.
When I was cold you opened up the door
Recalling instances of warmth and support during challenging times.
Don't want to stop I couldn't anyhow
Expressing a desire to continue the positive trajectory of the relationship.
You know I'm in too deep and I can't stop now.
Conveying a sense of being deeply involved and unable to halt the emotional commitment (repeated).
You gave me everything and then some more

When I was cold you opened up the door
