In The Name Of Love
Love's Sacrifice: A Tale of Devotion and Heartache
Lyrics
He said baby I love you
Expression of love from the man to the woman.
And she believed it was true
The woman believes the man's declaration of love.
In the back seat of his Malibu they made love
Intimate encounter in the back seat of a Malibu car.
For the worst and for the best
Commitment to each other in both good and bad times.
With their best friends as their guests
Their friends witness and share in their joy.
And in her mama's wedding dress she said I do.
The woman, wearing her mother's wedding dress, says "I do" at the ceremony.
She did it in the name of love
The woman takes actions or makes sacrifices motivated by love.
She did it in the name of love
Reiteration of the woman's actions in the name of love.
He was all she was thinking of
The man occupies the woman's thoughts completely.
She did it in the name of love
Reaffirmation of the woman's actions being motivated by love.
Did it in the name of love
Repetition of the act done in the name of love.
It's amazing what a heart's prepared to do
Recognition of the extraordinary things a heart is willing to do for love.
In the name of love.
Reiteration of the actions done in the name of love.
Forever didn't last too long
Their love doesn't last as long as expected.
A few short months and he was gone
The man leaves after a short time.
But the love they made was growing strong inside her
The love they created continues to grow within the woman.
She said I can't afford to raise him right
The woman feels financially unable to raise the child.
She asked for help but got advice
She seeks help but receives advice instead.
Couldn't choose to take a life so she had a child.
Choosing not to end the pregnancy, she decides to have the child.
She did it in the name of love
Repetition of the woman's actions in the name of love.
She did it in the name of love
Reiteration of the woman's dedication to love.
He was all she was thinking of
The man remains the woman's primary focus.
She did it in the name of love
Reaffirmation of the woman's actions in the name of love.
Did it in the name of love
Repetition of the act done in the name of love.
It's amazing what a heart's prepared to do
Recognition of the remarkable sacrifices made for love.
In the name of love.
Reiteration of the actions done in the name of love.
She drove by his house today
The woman observes the man from a distance at his house.
And from a distance watched him play
She watches him play without revealing herself.
Never gave herself away and cried
She maintains her emotional composure and cries privately.
Now the only thing that keeps her sane
The woman finds solace in the knowledge deep inside her.
Is knowing deep inside...
The undisclosed realization provides emotional stability.
