Good Enough to Be Your Wife
Love's Commitment: Good Enough to Be Your Forever
Lyrics
You ask me if we can live together
You inquire about the possibility of cohabitation.
Marriage doesn't fit your way of life
Marriage doesn't align with your preferred lifestyle.
And you say that you'll be with me forever
You express a commitment to be together indefinitely.
Well if that's true please make me your wife
If your commitment is genuine, the request is to formalize the relationship through marriage.
Cause if I'm good enough to be your woman good enough to share your life
The speaker questions if she is valued enough to be a significant part of the partner's life.
Good enough to live together I'm good enough to be your wife
Asserts that if she is good enough to share life, she should be considered for marriage.
Good enough to have your children good enough to give 'em life
Expresses readiness to have and nurture children if deemed worthy of marriage.
Good enough to do your cooking I'm good enough to be your wife
Willingness to fulfill traditional gender roles, like cooking, as part of being a wife.
I don't care what people say about us
Indifference to societal opinions about their relationship.
Loving one another isn't wrong
Defends the idea that loving each other is not morally wrong.
And I don't care as long as we're together
Emphasizes that being together is the main concern regardless of external judgment.
Right here next to you's where I belong
Declares a sense of belonging when close to the partner.
But if I'm good enough to be your woman good enough to share your life
Reiterates the desire to be considered for marriage based on being a worthy partner.
Good enough to live together I'm good enough to be your wife
Reaffirms the belief that if good enough for life together, marriage should follow.
Good enough to have your children good enough to give 'em life
Expresses readiness to bear and nurture children as part of the marital commitment.
Good enough to do your cooking I'm good enough to be your wife
Commits to traditional roles, like cooking, as part of the marriage.
Darling I'm so glad you want me with you
Expresses gratitude for being wanted but emphasizes the seriousness of commitment.
But sharin' someone's life just ain't the game
Highlights the seriousness of sharing a life and contrasts it with a mere "game."
So with you really want to live together
If the partner truly wants to live together, the speaker requires the commitment of marriage.
Then first of all I've got to have your name
Emphasizes the need for a formal commitment through marriage before cohabitation.
But if I'm good enough to be your woman good enough to share your life
Restates the question of worthiness for marriage based on being a valuable partner.
Good enough to live together I'm good enough to be your wife
Reiterates the belief that if good enough for life together, marriage is the next step.
Good enough to have your children good enough to give 'em life
Expresses readiness to have and raise children within the context of marriage.
Good enough to do your cooking I'm good enough to be your wife
Commits to traditional gender roles, such as cooking, as part of the marital relationship.
