Can't Stop My Heart From Loving You
Aaron Neville Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh
You can think that I'm just playin' games
You can think I'll do you wrong
You can think that I don't mean a word I say
You can think what you want (what you want)
I feel about you
Baby, you're just wastin' your time
Cause I'm not changing my mind
Can't stop the rain from falling down, oh
Can't stop the world from turnin' 'round, oh
Can't stop my heart from loving you
No, no (no, no), no matter what you do, baby
You can trust that I'm gonna stay around
You can trust I'll treat you right
(I treat you right)
You can be sure that I won't ever let you down
Sure as there are stars in the night
(In the night)
And if you ever think there'll come a day
I'll live without you
Baby, you're as wrong as can be
Can't change the way that I feel
Can't stop the rain from falling down, oh
Can't stop the world from turnin' 'round, oh
Can't stop my heart from loving you
No, no (no, no), no matter what you do, baby
Can't stop a river running free, no
Can't stop this love I feel in me, no
Can't stop my heart from loving you
No, no (no, no), no matter what you do, baby
Can't stop the wind, can't stop the sea
Can't stop the feelin' I feel in me
Night needs the stars, stars need the sky
And I'll always need you here in my life
Oh, oh, oh
Can't stop my love, can't stop my heart
I'm in too deep, I've gone too far (oh oh)
Never gonna stop, never gonna stop
Lovin' you, oh, oh, oh
But if you think you're gonna stop the way
I feel about you
Baby, you're just wastin' your time
Cause I'm not changing my mind
Can't stop the rain from falling down
(Just can't stop the rain)
Can't stop the world from turnin' 'round
(Can't stop, oh)
Can't stop my heart from loving you
(My heart, baby)
No, no (no, no), no matter what you do, baby
Can't stop a river running free
Can't stop this love I feel in me
Can't stop my heart from loving you
No, no (no, no), no matter what you do, baby
Can't stop the rain from falling down
(I'm here by your side)
Can't stop the world from turnin' 'round
(I'm gonna love you forever)
Can't stop my heart from loving you
(Can't stop my heart from loving you)
No, no (no, no), no matter what you do, baby
The lyrics of Aaron Neville's Can't Stop My Heart From Loving You are a declaration of steadfast love and devotion to a partner. In the first verse, the singer acknowledges that their partner may doubt their sincerity and loyalty, but insists that nothing can diminish their love. They assert that even if their partner tries to change or leave, they will remain devoted.
The chorus further emphasizes the singer's conviction, using natural phenomena like rain, wind, and the turning of the world to emphasize that their love is unstoppable. They also promise to always be there for their partner, likening their relationship to the essential nature of stars in the sky.
The second verse continues this theme of unbreakable devotion, with the singer affirming their trustworthiness and dedication. They declare that their love is permanent, and no matter what their partner may do or say, they will never waver in their loyalty or affection.
The bridge offers further assurances that the singer's love cannot be contained or controlled, using vivid imagery to drive the point home. The final chorus repeats the same unrelenting loyalty and love that permeates the entire song, reiterating that nothing can ever stop the profound connection they share.

No one else has a voice like Aaron Neville. I remember the whole story of his mom praying for him. St. Jude was the saint his mom prayed to that asked God to save her son. I remember how long he's been wearing St. Jude's earing in his left ear....always. I remember waking up after pulling a double shift (nurse) I showered, went to bed with the TV on --exhausted. All of a sudden I heard Aaron singing the Our Father...I popped out bed, and Montel Williams had his little boy with him on the set. I remember. Montel saying he wanted hos son ((about 3 yrs old) sitting there looking at Aaron singing 😅. We I was doing the same thing! Gosh I never get tired of him. Thanks to YouTube. I can go on but it will 2024 🎉 tomorrow. I will Always remember your mom's faith! ❤️ God bless you in your life I hope it turned out well. 💖✝️🛐

The Neville's were a $5 bar band back when I moved to NO for college. Still blow me away, and thanks to people putting them out there I'm still finding new songs that I love.

Aaron Neville? How did I miss this? 😳. I'm old and had to save up my coinage. Wow! Just when I thought I knew you, my girls got tired of hearing your Christmas songs as I'm making Seafood Gumbo? Didn't miss a beat. Don't like it? Well, go home. Clean up, contribute to your Momma and tomorrow come back home. I've never heard this song before. Bless you for stop performing.
