Old Time Used to Be
Unwavering Love: Joe Louis Walker's Musical Ode to Devotion
Lyrics
I'll love you in the morning
I commit to loving you in the morning.
In the afternoon
My love extends throughout the afternoon as well.
Nothing in the world, girl,
There's nothing in the world that I wouldn't do for you, dear.
I wouldn't do for you
I am willing to go to great lengths to make you happy.
I'll love every day girl
I pledge to love you every day and every night.
I'll love you every night
My love is constant, aiming to make you feel good all the time.
Anything to make you feel all right
I am open to doing anything to ensure your well-being.
Hey baby, can't you see
Expressing urgency for the partner to realize and reciprocate.
Forget about those others
Encouraging the partner to forget past relationships.
And your old time used to be
Mentioning a transition from an old relationship to the current one.
And when you need some hugging
Assuring availability for emotional and physical support.
And kissing too
Expressing readiness for intimate moments.
Ain't nothing in the world
Reiterating the willingness to do anything for the partner.
I wouldn't do for you
Committing to go to great lengths for the partner.
Tell me baby, what you need
Asking the partner what they need and assuring support.
And y'know I'll be there, you see
Expressing a willingness to be there for the partner's needs.
Hey baby, can't you see
Reiterating the urgency for the partner to focus on the current relationship.
Forget about those others
Encouraging the partner to let go of past attachments.
And your old time used to be
Repeating the theme of moving on from old relationships.
When you need me, baby
Offering availability and commitment when the partner needs support.
Call me on the phone
Providing a means of contact and reassurance of being at home.
Don't you know I'll be right here at home
Expressing readiness to be present and supportive.
Tell me darling, anything
Asking the partner to communicate any needs for proof of commitment.
Anything to prove to you
Willing to do anything to prove loyalty and commitment.
that I'm your man
Asserting the role of being the partner's man.
Hey baby, can't you see
Repeating the urgency for the partner to focus on the current relationship.
Forget about those others
Encouraging the partner to let go of past attachments.
And your old time used to be
Reiterating the theme of moving on from old relationships.
