How Do You Keep the Music Playing
Eternal Symphony of Love and Growth
Lyrics
How do you keep the music playing?
Asking how one maintains the continuity of a romantic relationship, likened to keeping music playing.
How do you make it last?
Questioning how to sustain the relationship over time.
How do you keep the song from fading too fast?
Asking how to prevent the love or connection from diminishing too quickly.
How do you lose yourself to someone?
Querying about maintaining one's individuality while being emotionally involved with someone.
And never lose your ways
Questioning how to remain true to oneself while in a relationship.
How do you not run out of new things to say?
Asking how to keep conversations and interactions fresh and interesting.
And since we're always changing
Reflecting on the constant evolution or change that occurs in life.
How can it be the same?
Expressing the challenge of maintaining consistency in a relationship despite changes.
And tell me how, year after year
Inquiring about sustaining love and emotional stability over the years.
You're sure your heart will fall apart
Questioning how to avoid emotional pain when reminded of a past love.
Each time you hear his name
Expressing the difficulty of dealing with memories triggered by the mention of a former love.
I know the way I feel for you, it's now or never
Expressing a strong feeling of love with a sense of urgency or decisiveness.
The more I love, the more that I'm afraid
Describing the fear that intensifies with deeper love.
That in your eyes I many not see forever, forever
Expressing uncertainty about the permanence of love, especially in the partner's eyes.
If we can be the best of lovers
Desiring a relationship where both love and friendship coexist harmoniously.
Yet be the best of friends
Aspiring for a relationship where efforts are made daily to improve and grow together.
If we can try with everyday to make it bertter as it grows
Expressing hope that with luck, the relationship will endure.
With any luck, then I suppose, the music never ends
