Until the Real Thing Comes Along
Endless Devotion: Embracing Love's Imperfections
Lyrics
I'd work for you, I'd even slave for you,
The speaker is willing to work hard and put in effort for the person they love.
I'd be a beggar or a knave for you.
Expresses the willingness to endure hardship or even engage in dishonorable behavior for the loved one.
And if that isn't love it'll have to do,
The speaker acknowledges that their actions might not entirely represent love but are the best they can offer until true love arrives.
Until the real thing comes along.
They'll continue this level of commitment until they find genuine love.
I'd gladly move the earth for you,
They're willing to go to great lengths or make significant sacrifices to prove their love's depth and value.
To prove my love dear and its worth for you.
To illustrate their commitment and the value of their affection to the loved one.
And if that isn't love it'll have to do,
Reiterating that although their actions may not fully encompass love, they'll persist in this until they find true love.
Until the real thing comes along.
They'll maintain this level of dedication until encountering genuine love.
With all the words dear at my command,
Despite having a rich vocabulary, the speaker struggles to express their feelings adequately.
I just can't make you understand.
Their attempts to convey their emotions are unsuccessful.
I'll always love you darling, come what may,
Assures unwavering love regardless of circumstances.
My heart is yours, what more can I say.
Declares complete emotional devotion, offering their heart entirely.
I'd sigh for you, I'd cry for you,
Expresses willingness to display emotions and vulnerability for the loved one.
I'd tear the stars down from the sky for you.
Metaphorically emphasizes the extent to which they would go to express love.
And if that isn't love it'll have to do,
Repeats the sentiment that their actions might not entirely encapsulate love but will suffice temporarily.
Until the real thing comes along.
They'll continue this level of emotional investment until encountering genuine love.
I'd sigh for you, I'd cry for you,
Repeats the willingness to show emotions and make grand gestures for the loved one.
I'd tear the stars down from the sky for you.
Repeats the metaphorical statement of their extreme dedication and willingness to go to great lengths for love.
And if that isn't love it'll have to do,
Reiterates that their efforts might not completely represent love but will suffice temporarily.
Until the real thing comes along.
They'll continue this level of emotional investment until encountering genuine love.
