This Time I'm Right
Embracing True Love: This Time, I'm Right - Luther Vandross
Lyrics
Don't know what this could be
Expressing uncertainty about a situation or feeling.
Could it be love taking a hold on me?
Wondering if love is taking control of emotions.
There's no pain, there's no doubt
Describing a state of no pain or doubt.
For the first time there's nothing to cry about
Feeling content and happy for the first time.
She wears the stars in her eyes
Describing the person's captivating eyes.
And she looks and she sees into this heart
Expressing the depth of the emotional connection.
I could survive after any lover
Confident in personal resilience after any past heartbreak.
Love could go wrong one way or another
Acknowledging that love can face challenges.
But, this time I'm right; this time I know
Confident that this time the feeling is genuine.
This time I know that it's love 'til the end
Believing in a lasting and true love.
Yesterday's over, I'm starting again
Moving on from the past and embracing a new beginning.
And, this time I'm right; this time I know it's love
Reiterating the certainty of genuine love.
Ain't no love like she gives
Highlighting the unique and irreplaceable love received.
And she told me that I'm the reason she lives
Being told that the person is a significant reason for her existence.
Comes to me all the time
Reassuring that the person is not a figment of imagination.
I'm not just making her up in my mind
Asserting the reality of the loved one's presence.
I see the stars in her eyes
Seeing the special qualities in the loved one.
And I look and I know that she sees only mine
Reciprocal acknowledgment of mutual affection.
All of my life I've been waiting for this
Expressing a lifelong anticipation for such love.
This is the love that I don't wanna miss
Emphasizing the significance of not wanting to miss this love.
'Cause, this time I'm right; this time I know
Reiterating the confidence in the authenticity of love.
I'm a believer in love that's for real
Professing belief in genuine and lasting love.
I don't know much, but I know what I feel
Admitting limited knowledge but strong feelings.
And, this time I'm right; this time I know it's love
Reaffirming the certainty of the love being genuine.
This is it, can't waste time
Stressing the importance of not wasting time.
'Cause I know, the one is mine
Confidently claiming the identified soulmate.
Celebrate, can't slow down
Celebrating the transformative power of love.
It's of r sure, love's turning me around
Expressing the certainty that love is changing the person.
I could survive after any lover
Reiterating personal resilience after past relationships.
Love could go wrong one way or another
Acknowledging the possibility of love facing challenges.
But, this time I'm right; this time I know
Confidently asserting the authenticity of current love.
This time I know that it's love 'til the end
Believing in the endurance of love until the end.
Yesterday's over, I'm starting again
Leaving the past behind and embracing a new start.
And, this time I'm right; this time I know it's love
Reiterating the certainty of the love being genuine.
All of my life I've been waiting for this
Expressing a lifelong anticipation for such love.
This is the love that I don't wanna miss
Emphasizing the significance of not wanting to miss this love.
'Cause, this time I'm right; this time I know
Reiterating the confidence in the authenticity of love.
I'm a believer in love that's for real
Professing belief in genuine and lasting love.
I don't know much, but I know what I feel
Admitting limited knowledge but strong feelings.
And, this time I'm right; this time I know it's love
Reaffirming the certainty of the love being genuine.
