As Long As You Love Me
As Long As You Love Me Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Although loneliness has always been a friend of mine
I'm leaving 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'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 are comin' from
I don't care, as long as you love me, baby.
Who you are
Where you're from




Don't care what you did
As long as you love me

Overall Meaning

As Long As You Love Me by the Backstreet Boys is a song about the all-consuming nature of love, and how it can make a person ignore reason and logic. The lyrics are sung by a man who is deeply in love and willing to risk everything for the person he loves, even if it means overlooking their flaws and shortcomings.


In the first verse, the singer acknowledges that he has always had a sense of loneliness in his life, but now he is entrusting his life to the person he loves. He acknowledges the criticism that comes with such a reckless decision, but he's willing to take the risk for love. The second verse is all about the addictiveness of love, with the singer admitting that he can't get his lover out of his head, regardless of what they may have done in their past. He goes on to say that he doesn't care about their past as long as they're together now. The chorus reiterates this point by saying that the singer doesn't care about the person's past or where they come from as long as they love each other.


The bridge is where the singer expresses how much he loves the person in question, stating that every little thing they've said and done feels ingrained within him. They are meant to be together, and he's done his best to hide his feelings, but they're too powerful to ignore. The song's second chorus concludes with the singer reaffirming that nothing else matters as long as they're in love.


Overall, the song portrays the idea that love can help people overlook flaws and make them willing to risk everything for the person they love.

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.
