That Never Stopped Me
Embracing Love's Risks: "That Never Stopped Me
Lyrics
Here's where I should say goodnight call me up some other time
Expressing the conventional expectation of saying goodnight and suggesting a future call.
A little kiss by the front porch light that's what I should do
Acknowledging the expected romantic gesture of a kiss under the porch light.
Anyone with sense at all knows how far and fast to fall
Highlighting the importance of sensible decision-making in matters of the heart.
The world is full of brokenhearted fools
Observing that the world is filled with individuals who have experienced heartbreak.
That never stopped me no I never hold back
Defiantly stating that previous heartbreaks have not restrained the speaker from taking risks.
I go playing on the railroad track
Metaphorically describing the speaker's daring approach to relationships as playing on a railroad track.
Even though there's a good chance that a freight train is bearing down
Acknowledging the potential danger in pursuing such relationships despite the risks involved.
That never stopped me from falling in love
Reiterating that the fear of falling in love does not prevent the speaker from doing so.
Knowing better ain't good enough
Emphasizing that having knowledge of potential consequences is insufficient to deter the speaker.
I see the light but my eyes are shut when a boy like you's around
Indicating the speaker's awareness of the attraction but a hesitancy to fully engage.
Never stopped me before it won't stop me now
Asserting that past experiences of falling in love despite warnings won't hinder the speaker's current pursuit.
When I look into your eyes I see all the warning signs
Recognizing warning signs in the current romantic interest when looking into their eyes.
It's too soon to cross that line I will anyway
Conveying a determination to cross boundaries despite the premature nature of the relationship.
Fools rush in where angels stop guess which one of them I'm not
Referencing the classic saying that fools rush in where angels fear to tread, distancing the speaker from caution.
Even though I know I'm tempting fate
Acknowledging the awareness of tempting fate by proceeding despite the potential consequences.
That never stopped me...
Reiterating the speaker's fearless approach to love, emphasizing the lack of inhibition.
Don't lose your heart use your head
Advising others to be cautious in matters of the heart, advocating for a rational approach.
That's what everybody says
Highlighting the common advice of using one's head rather than being led solely by emotions.
That never stopped me...
Concluding with a repetition of the speaker's fearless attitude towards love despite conventional wisdom.
