The Quittin' Kind
Love's Perseverance: Defying the Quittin' Kind
Lyrics
I know you're holding your breath
You're anxious and uncertain
You're wondering what's coming next
Anticipating what comes next
Can't be too careful this time
Being cautious is essential now
No Love ain't something you trust
Love isn't easily relied upon
You've seen a little too much of the quittin' kind
You've experienced individuals who give up easily in relationships
That pain you're wrestling with
Your emotional struggle
I know right where it lives
I understand where your pain resides
Been there a couple of times
I've been in a similar emotional state
Always 'almost in tears'
Consistently close to tears
Living in fear of the quittin' kind
Living in constant fear of relationships failing easily
If you don't know what you're got
If you're unsure of what you have
I'll tell you one thing it's not
One thing it's definitely not
It's not the kind of love that would turn and run
It's not a love that would quickly end
This one's steady and strong
This love is constant and firm
This one will keep going on and on and on
It will endure indefinitely
To the end of time
It'll last forever
It ain't the quittin' kind
This love doesn't give up easily
You don't have to be scared
No need to be afraid
We're not going back there
We're moving forward, not returning to past failures
We're going to leave it behind
We're leaving those negative experiences behind
All that sorrow and grief
Painful memories of failed relationships
Those bad memories of the quittin' kind
Recollections of relationships that easily fell apart
If you don't know what you're got
If you're uncertain about what you possess
I'll tell you one thing it's not
One thing it definitely isn't
It's not the kind of love that would turn and run
It's not a love that would quickly end
This one's steady and strong
This love is constant and firm
This one will keep going on and on and on
It will endure indefinitely
To the end of time
It'll last forever
It ain't the quittin' kind
This love doesn't give up easily
This one's steady and strong
This love is constant and firm
This one will keep going on and on and on
It will endure indefinitely
To the end of time
It'll last forever
It ain't the quittin' kind
This love doesn't give up easily
The quittin' kind no no no (it ain't the quittin' kind)
Referring to the consistent nature of this love
It ain't the quittin' kind (it ain't the quittin' kind)
Reiterating the steadfastness of this love
