Just as Much as Ever
Eternal Yearning: Nat King Cole's Timeless Love Confession
Lyrics
Just as much as ever
Expresses enduring feelings, indicating a consistent level of emotions
I need you and want you to be here
Expresses the desire for the person to be present
Just as much as ever
Reiterates the ongoing strength of emotions
I love you, and always will, my dear
Declares persistent love that remains unwavering
Even though we two are parted
Despite being apart from the person
My feelings for you never drop
Assures that feelings for the person remain constant
For loving you is something I started
Highlights that the act of loving was initiated and continues
And don't know how to stop
Expresses the inability to cease loving the person
Just as much as ever
Repeats the enduring nature of emotions
I'm hoping that you'll be mine again
Expresses a hope for reconciliation or reunion
Darlin', 'cause I'll never be satisfied till then
Shares dissatisfaction with the current state until reunion happens
For I am still the same old me
Asserts continuity of self despite circumstances
With the same old love for you
Confirms unchanged feelings of affection
Just as much as ever, my heart beats for you
Declares the constancy of affection and longing for the person
(Just as much as ever)
Repeats the sentiment of enduring feelings
(I'm hoping that you'll be mine again)
Restates the desire for reunion or reconnection
Darling, 'cause I'll never be satisfied till then
Reaffirms dissatisfaction until the reunion occurs
For I am still the same old me
Confirms consistency of self despite circumstances
With the same old love for you
Emphasizes unchanging love for the person
Just as much as ever, my heart beats for you
Reiterates enduring affection and longing
