Keep on Loving You
Brad Paisley Feat. Keith Urban Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In the morning
On the early train
I could say everything's alright
I could pretend and say good bye
Got your ticket
Got your suitcase
I could say that's the way it goes
I could pretend and you won't know
That I was lying
'Cause I can't stop loving you
I can't stop loving you
No, I can't stop loving you
Though I try
Took a taxi
To the station
Not a word was said
I saw you walk across the road
Maybe the last time, I don't know
Feeling humble
I heard a rumble
On the railway track
And when I hear the whistle blow
I walk away and you don't know
That I was lying
'Cause I can't stop loving you
No, I can't stop loving you
I can't stop loving you
Though I try
'Cause I can't stop loving you
I can't stop loving you
No, I can't stop loving you
Though I try
The lyrics of Brad Paisley Feat. Keith Urban's song Keep On Loving You depict the singer bidding farewell to his lover who is leaving on an early train. He could put up a façade of everything being okay and say goodbye, but in reality, he is unable to stop loving her even though he has tried. As they head to the station, no words are exchanged between them, and the singer watches as his lover walks across the road, not knowing if it's the last time he'll see her. He feels humbled, and as the train arrives, he hears a rumble on the railway track. When the whistle blows, he chooses to walk away and conceal his emotions, knowing that he can't stop loving her no matter how hard he tries.
The song encapsulates the emotions one feels when they can't stop loving a person who is leaving their life, their futile efforts at trying to overcome the feelings, and ultimately accepting the reality of their emotions. The lyrics are heart-wrenching and evoke a sense of empathy amongst listeners. The melody is equally soulful, with the interplay of the guitar and the steel drums adding a unique vibe to the song.
Line by Line Meaning
So you're leaving
You have made up your mind and decided to leave
In the morning
You will leave early in the morning
On the early train
You will use the train that departs early in the morning
I could say everything's alright
I could lie and say that everything is okay
I could pretend and say good bye
I could pretend to be fine and say goodbye
Got your ticket
You have your train ticket
Got your suitcase
You have already packed your suitcase
Got your leaving smile
You are smiling but it is a smile of goodbye
I could say that's the way it goes
I could say that this is just how life is
I could pretend and you won't know
I could fake my true feelings and you will not realize
That I was lying
But the truth is that I would be lying
'Cause I can't stop loving you
This is because I can't help the way I feel about you
Though I try
Despite my attempts to suppress these emotions
Took a taxi
I took a taxi to the train station
To the station
This is the destination of the taxi ride
Not a word was said
We both traveled in silence, without exchanging any words
I saw you walk across the road
I watched you walk across the street
Maybe the last time, I don't know
It could be the last time I see you, but I'm not sure
Feeling humble
I feel small and insignificant
I heard a rumble
I heard the sound of the train approaching
On the railway track
The train is moving on the railroad track
And when I hear the whistle blow
As I hear the train whistle blow
I walk away and you don't know
I turn around and leave without you realizing it
That I was lying
I was not telling the truth earlier and my feelings for you are still strong
'Cause I can't stop loving you
I can't control my emotions when it comes to you
No, I can't stop loving you
These feelings are too strong to be ignored
Though I try
Even if I make an effort to suppress them

Good- but Vince is better than Keith I think.

My future son-in-law played "Little Brad" in the video. He speaks very highly of Brad and Keith and how genuinely nice they were on set.
