Hoping Love Will Last
Enduring Hopes: Exploring the Timeless Essence of Love in Steve Hackett's Melody
Lyrics
There are many friends that I once knew
Reflecting on past friendships that have faded away.
Who felt the same special thing that I share with you
Expressing a unique connection shared with the current partner.
They've grown apart in different ways
Observing friends who have drifted apart in different directions.
I wonder if someone hears as I start to say
Wondering if anyone is listening as the speaker begins to speak.
I'm hoping love will last
Expressing a desire for love to endure over time.
Yes I'm hoping love will last
Reiterating the hope that love will endure.
On and on, on and on
Emphasizing the enduring nature of love.
Why do I dream love's labour's lost
Pondering why love sometimes seems elusive or unattainable.
I'm just a face with a name that you soon forgot
Feeling like a forgotten person with only a remembered name.
But when I'm scared the most, the nightmare ends
Experiencing relief as nightmares end, especially when feeling scared.
Then safe and sound I awake in your arms again
Finding comfort and safety upon waking up in the partner's arms.
I'm hoping love will last
Repeating the hope that love will endure.
Yes I'm hoping love will last
Affirming the ongoing hope for lasting love.
On and on, on and on
Reiterating the idea of love enduring endlessly.
How can I go on alone when your love
Pondering how to continue life without the partner's love.
When your love is all I've known
Stating that the partner's love is the only experience known.
Sometimes we stay many miles away
Describing physical distance but emphasizing constant mental presence.
You know you're here every minute throughout the day
Acknowledging the partner's continuous presence in thoughts.
Within my thoughts
Expressing care for the partner's well-being.
Within my thoughts so take good care
Waiting for moments to be shared with the partner.
I only wait for the moments we both can share
Repeating the hope for lasting love.
Hoping love will last
Expressing a continued desire for enduring love.
Yes I'm hoping, hoping love will last
Reiterating the hope that love will endure.
On and on, on and on
Emphasizing the idea of love lasting indefinitely.
