As Long As You Love Me
"Backstreet Boys" Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

As long as you love

Although loneliness has always been a friend of mine
I'm leavin' my life in your hands
People say I'm crazy and that I am blind
Risking it all in a glance
And how you got me blind is still a mystery
I can't get you out of my head
Don't care what is written in your history
As long as you're here with me

I don't care who you are
Where you're from
What you did
As long as you love me
Who you are
Where you're from
Don't care what you did
As long as you love me

Every little thing that you have said and done
Feels like it's deep within me
Doesn't really matter if you're on the run
It seems like we're meant to be

I don't care who you are (who you are)
Where you're from (where you're from)
What you did
As long as you love me (I don't know)
Who you are (who you are)
Where you're from (where you're from)
Don't care what you did
As long as you love me (yeah)

I've tried to hide it so that no one knows
But I guess it shows
When you look into my eyes
What you did and where you're comin from
I don't care, as long as you love me, baby

I don't care who you are (who you are)
Where you're from (where you're from)
What you did
As long as you love me (as long as you love me)
Who you are (who you are)
Where you're from (where you're from)
Don't care what you did (yeah)
As long as you love me (as long as you love me)
Who you are (who you are)
Where you're from
What you did
As long as you love me
Who you are (who you are)
Where you're from (where you're from)
As long as you love me
Who you are
As long as you love me




What you did (I don't care)
As long as you love me

Overall Meaning

"As Long As You Love Me" by the Backstreet Boys is a classic love song that talks about how love overcomes obstacles and differences. The song starts with the singer acknowledging that loneliness has always been a constant companion in his life. However, he is willing to leave his life in the hands of his love interest, even though many people around him consider him to be crazy and blind for doing so. He is willing to take the risk and jump headfirst into a relationship.


The singer admits that he is completely enamored by his partner and is mystified by how they have made him blind to everything else. He wants to be with this person even if they have a complicated past or history that others consider questionable. He only cares that they are "here with me."


The chorus of the song drives home the point that love knows no boundaries, and it doesn't matter who you are, where you're from, or what you've done. As long as two people love each other, nothing else matters. The singer is sure that he's in love, even though he can't quite explain the feeling or the depth of his emotions.


Line by Line Meaning

Although loneliness has always been a friend of mine
I've been alone for a while


I'm leavin' my life in your hands
I'm giving you control over my life


People say I'm crazy and that I am blind
Others think I'm foolish and blinded by love


Risking it all in a glance
Taking a chance on love at first sight


And how you got me blind is still a mystery
I'm not sure why I'm so drawn to you


I can't get you out of my head
You're always on my mind


Don't care what is written in your history
I don't care about your past mistakes


As long as you're here with me
As long as we're together, it's all that matters


I don't care who you are
Your identity doesn't matter to me


Where you're from
Where you come from doesn't impact my feelings for you


What you did
Your past actions won't change how I feel about you


As long as you love me
All that matters is that you love me


Every little thing that you have said and done
Everything you've said and done is important to me


Feels like it's deep within me
Your actions have had a profound impact on me


Doesn't really matter if you're on the run
Even if you're running from something, I'll still love you


It seems like we're meant to be
It feels like we're destined to be together


I've tried to hide it so that no one knows
I've been trying to keep my feelings for you a secret


But I guess it shows
But I think people can tell anyway


When you look into my eyes
When we make eye contact, my feelings are obvious


As long as you love me, baby
As long as you love me, that's all that matters

Among this sexual immoral surroundings...I can't believe my eyes to see such tremendous likes/thumbs ups/subscriptions., for this love without lust song.
This shows people are seekers of true love.,genetically., but being tempted by the medias...cenema..videos and movie songs.
