I'll Take Care of You
Devotion and Promise: Marvin Gaye's Oath of Endless Care
Lyrics
I'll take care of you with all
I commit to taking care of you completely
My heart and all my soul
Expressing devotion with all of my heart and soul
I'll take care of you with all that's in me
I assure you that I will care for you with all that I am
You are my love
Affirming the significance of the person as my love
And good things, I pledge my love to you
Promising positive things, dedicating love
Put your trust in me
Encouraging trust and reliance on the speaker
Make no mistake, you see
Emphasizing the importance of understanding
It's no good being all alone
Stating the drawbacks of solitude
You need someone to call your own
Highlighting the need for a significant other
I'll take care of you with all
Reiterating the commitment to care with heart and soul
My heart and all my soul
Reaffirming dedication to providing complete care
I'll take care of you with all that's
Committing to care with everything within the speaker
In me 'cause you are my love
Restating the importance of the person as the speaker's love
This is a golden age of happiness
Describing a period of happiness and fulfillment
But to know it, really know it
Emphasizing the need for genuine understanding of happiness
You need togetherness
Stating that to truly grasp happiness, togetherness is essential
Take my hand, let me lead you girl
Inviting the person to join the speaker's world
Let me show you, show you to my very world
Expressing a desire to show and share the speaker's world
I'll take care of you, oh
Reiterating the commitment to take care of the person
Just don't leave me baby
Pleading for the person not to leave
I'll take care of you with all that's in me
Reaffirming the dedication to care with everything within the speaker
You are my love
Affirming the person as the speaker's love
Hey, I'll take care of you, you
Reassuring the commitment to take care of the person
Were born to love me, baby
Asserting that the person was meant to love the speaker
