I Can't Stop Loving You
Unstoppable Love: Paul Griggs' Melodic Ode to Endless Devotion
Lyrics
There's things I want to tell you
Struggles to verbally express feelings accurately
But the words come out wrong
Difficulty communicating emotions effectively
So I wrote them down and change them round and put them in a song
Writes feelings down, alters them into a song
Now I sing my song to you
Expresses emotions through singing
Now I say these words to you
Directly communicates sentiments through song
I could fly to another planet
Implies extreme measures to convey love
I could walk to Timbuktu
Exaggeration to emphasize determination
I could sail across the seven seas
Expresses willingness to traverse great distances
But I can't stop loving you
Despite efforts, unable to cease loving
There are countries that I've been to
Reflects on travels and experiences
Places that I've seen
Recollection of places visited
There's old Nepal, the Taj Mahal, the streets of gay Paris
Mentions specific locations like Nepal, Taj Mahal, Paris
Now I sing my song to you
Relating experiences through song
Yes, I say these words to you
Directly addresses the listener through the song
I could fly to another planet
Reiterates extreme actions for love
I could walk to Timbuktu
Emphasizes determination to reach any place
I could sail across the seven seas
Expresses readiness to travel extensively
But I can't stop loving you
Despite efforts, love remains unaltered
You're a cool wind in a heatwave
Compares the beloved to a refreshing presence
A Rhapsody in blue,
Metaphorically describes the impact of the beloved
The way, I think the way I feel
Reflects on personal thoughts and emotions
The way you do the things you do
Admires the actions and characteristics of the beloved
I could fly to another planet,
Reiterates extreme measures to express love
I could walk to Timbuktu
Exaggeration to emphasize determination (repeated)
I could sail across the seven seas
Expresses willingness to travel extensively (repeated)
But I can't stop loving you
Despite efforts, unable to cease loving (repeated)
I can't stop loving you
Reaffirms inability to stop loving
I can't stop loving you
Emphasizes the impossibility of stopping love (repeated)
Loving you loving you
Reiterates the declaration of loving intensely
I can't stop loving you
Finalizes the sentiment of ceaseless love
