Dedicated to the One I Love
A Love Beyond Distance: Dedication in the Darkest Hours
Lyrics
While I'm far away from you my baby
Expressing separation from the speaker's significant other.
I know it's hard for you my baby
Acknowledging the difficulty faced by the significant other due to the distance.
Because it's hard for me my baby
Conveying that the separation is equally challenging for the speaker.
And the darkest hour is just before dawn
Emphasizing that difficult times precede moments of clarity or relief.
Each night before you go to bed my baby
Instructing the significant other to pray for the speaker before bedtime.
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
Reiterating the request for a nightly prayer, emphasizing the emotional connection.
And tell all the stars above
Encouraging communication with the universe, possibly symbolizing a plea for divine intervention.
This is dedicated to the one I love
Declaring that the song is a dedication to the loved one.
Life can never be
Reflecting on the inevitability of life not meeting our exact expectations.
Exactly like we want it to be
Expressing the idea that life may unfold differently than desired.
It makes me happy
Stating that the realization of being loved brings happiness.
Just knowing that you love me
Highlighting the joy derived from the knowledge of the significant other's love.
There's one thing I want you to do
Requesting a specific action or commitment from the significant other.
Especially for me
Emphasizing the personal nature of the requested action.
And it's something that everybody needs
Asserting that the requested action is universally important.
Each night before you go to bed my baby
Repeating the request for a nightly prayer, reinforcing its significance.
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
Reiterating the importance of the nightly prayer for the speaker.
And tell all the stars above
Reconnecting the act of prayer to the dedication of the song to the loved one.
This is dedicated to the one I love
Confirming once again that the song is dedicated to the significant other.
