Anything for You
Endless Love's Struggle: A Heart's Unyielding Devotion
Lyrics
Anything for you
Expressing willingness to do anything for the person addressed
Though you're not here
Acknowledging the absence of the person
Since you said we're through
Noting the end of the relationship as communicated by the person
It seems like years
Perceiving time as dragging due to emotional distress
Time keeps draggin' on and on
Highlighting the prolonged duration of emotional pain
And forever's been and gone
Conveying the passage of time without improvement
Still I can't figure what went wrong
Expressing confusion about the cause of the relationship's deterioration
I'd still do anything for you
Reiterating the commitment to do anything for the person despite the breakup
I'll play your game
Willing to engage in the person's emotional game
You hurt me through and through
Acknowledging deep emotional pain caused by the person
But you can have your way
Granting the person their desires
I can pretend each time I see you
Ability to pretend not to care when seeing the person
That I don't care and I don't need you
Denying emotional dependence on the person
And though you'll never see me cryin'
Stating an external demeanor that contradicts internal emotions
You know inside I feel like dying
Internal suffering despite outward appearance
And I'd do anything for you
Reaffirming the willingness to do anything despite challenges
In spite of it all
Expressing resilience and learning from difficulties
I've learned so much from you
Highlighting personal growth attributed to the person
You made me strong
Attributing strength to the impact of the person
But don't even think that I don't love you
Asserting ongoing love for the person
That for one minute I forgot you
Denying any momentary lapse in remembering the person
But sometimes things don't work out right
Recognizing that things sometimes do not go as planned
And you just have to say goodbye
Accepting the need to say goodbye despite love
I hope you find someone to please you
Expressing hope for the person's future happiness
Someone who'll care and never leave you
Desiring a caring and enduring connection for the person
But if that someone ever hurts you
Acknowledging the possibility of future emotional hurt for the person
You just might need a friend to turn to
Suggesting availability as a supportive friend
And I'd do anything for you
Reiterating the commitment to do anything for the person despite challenges
I'll give you up
Willing to let go if it brings happiness to the person
If that's what I should do
Expressing readiness to sacrifice personal desires
To make you happy
Desiring the person's happiness above all else
I can pretend each time I see you
Ability to pretend not to care when seeing the person (repeated)
That I don't care and I don't need you
Reiterating the ability to appear unaffected by the person
And though inside I feel like dying
Internal suffering despite outward appearance (repeated)
You know you'll never see me cryin'
Contradicting external and internal emotional states
But don't even think that I don't love you
Asserting ongoing love for the person (repeated)
That for one minute I forgot you
Denying any momentary lapse in remembering the person (repeated)
But sometimes things don't work out right
Recognizing that things sometimes do not go as planned (repeated)
And you just have to say goodbye
Accepting the need to say goodbye despite love (repeated)
