This Year's Love
Eternal Yearning: Embracing Love's Resilience
Lyrics
This year's love had better last
This year's love is expected to endure.
Heaven knows it's high time
There's a sense of urgency, as if it's long overdue.
And I've been waiting on my own too long
The speaker has been waiting for love for a significant period alone.
But when you hold me like you do
When embraced in a certain way, it feels profoundly right.
It feels so right
The sensation is so perfect that it leads to forgetfulness.
I start to forget
Despite past heartbreak, the current experience helps in forgetting.
How my heart gets torn
Recalling the pain when the heart is wounded.
When that hurt gets thrown
The hurt is a result of emotional wounds inflicted.
Feeling like you can't go on
The feeling of being unable to endure the pain.
Turning circles when time again
Repeating cycles in time, possibly reflecting on past experiences.
It cuts like a knife oh yeah
The emotional pain is sharp and deeply felt.
If you love me got to know for sure
If there's love, it should be confirmed unequivocally.
'Cause it takes something more this time
This time, love requires more than just sweet lies.
Than sweet sweet lies
Truth is essential before opening up and committing.
Before I open up my arms and fall
Before surrendering, losing control, and opening up.
Losing all control
The vulnerability of losing control and surrendering to love.
Every dream inside my soul
Every aspiration within the speaker's soul is at stake.
And when you kiss me
Physical intimacy is a powerful and transformative experience.
On that midnight street
The setting of a significant moment, perhaps romantic.
Sweep me off my feet
The experience is overwhelming, making life seem sweet.
Singing ain't this life so sweet
Expressing joy and appreciation for life.
This year's love had better last
Reiteration of the hope that this year's love will endure.
This year's love had better last
Emphasizing the desire for lasting love.
So who's to worry
Questioning the need to worry about potential heartbreak.
If our hearts get torn
Accepting that hearts may get wounded in the journey of love.
When that hurt gets thrown
Dealing with the pain when hurt is inflicted.
Don't you know this life goes on
Life continues despite the challenges of love.
And won't you kiss me
Expressing a desire for a meaningful kiss.
On that midnight street
A specific moment of connection and intimacy.
Sweep me off my feet
Being swept off one's feet in a joyous manner.
Singing ain't this life so sweet
Reflecting on the sweetness and beauty of life.
This year's love had better last
Repeating the hope for enduring love this year.
This year's love had better last
Emphasizing the desire for a lasting and meaningful relationship.
This year's love had better last
Reiterating the anticipation for a love that endures.
This year's love had better last
Underscoring the yearning for a love that stands the test of time.
