Pastime
Embracing Love's Symphony: Lionel Richie's Pastime Revelations
Lyrics
Baby would it be too much if I told you that I'm in love?
Baby, expressing love and considering whether it's too much to admit.
Life has never been better, we are closer than ever
Life is currently at its best, and the relationship is closer than ever.
Baby would it be alright if I took a bit of your time
Asking for time to share a secret.
To tell you my little secret, promise that you will keep it?
Expressing the desire to share a secret with the assurance of keeping it.
If I was ruler for a day and there were things that I could change
Imagining being in control and not wanting to change anything because of the importance of the person.
I wouldn't change a thing that's how much you mean
Reaffirming the significance of the person by not wanting to change anything.
You're my favorite pastime and I'm so happy you're mine
Declaring the person as the favorite pastime and expressing happiness about the relationship.
We have come so far you know but there's still farther we can go
Acknowledging progress in the relationship but anticipating further growth.
You're my favorite pastime and baby you make me smile
Reiterating the person as the favorite pastime and expressing joy.
With the happiness you bring, it makes me wanna sing
Linking happiness brought by the person to the desire to sing.
Baby would it make you scared if I said I want to be there
Expressing the wish to be there for the person during difficult times.
To hold you through all the bad times and guide you back to the sunshine?
Desiring to provide support and guide the person through challenges.
'Cause baby it would make me cry to not have you in my life
Expressing emotional impact and potential sadness without the person.
How could I go on breathing when you're the air that I'm needing
Highlighting the essential role of the person as a source of emotional sustenance.
If I could have my every wish and there were things that I could switch
Imagining having every wish fulfilled but choosing not to change anything because of the person's value.
I wouldn't switch a thing that's how much you mean
Reiterating the importance of the person by resisting the desire to change anything.
You're my favorite pastime and I'm so happy you're mine
Declaring the person as the favorite pastime again and expressing happiness.
We have come so far you know but there's still farther we can go
Acknowledging progress in the relationship and anticipating further growth.
You're my favorite pastime and baby you make me smile
Reiterating the person as the favorite pastime and expressing joy.
With the happiness you bring, it makes me wanna sing
Linking happiness brought by the person to the desire to sing.
Oh, when I look at you I see the future
Seeing a positive future with the person, suggesting a happy ever after.
That's happy ever after, we'll make it work
Expressing commitment to making the relationship work.
Though I may not always please you I'll never grieve you
Acknowledging imperfections but pledging not to cause distress.
You lift me up when I am down, so happy that I've found you
Recognizing the person's supportive role in lifting spirits when down.
'Cause baby you are my
Beginning to express the person's central role.
