Carter Hulsey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's no words I could say to make me change
My minds made up, my thoughts stay the same
Baby, I love you
We'll make it through
The hole in my head is from the fire in your tongue
Our fights with the sink, our fights in the sun
But i'll make it work, cause these are our dreams
I'll love you til we're black and we're blue
There's no words I could say to make me change
My minds made up, my thoughts stay the same
Baby, I love you
We'll make it through
I lie awake alone in my bed
Needles can't fix this hole in my chest
And you're in some town a thousand miles away
You're singing your dreams
Now you're singing my name
I'll love you til we're black and we're blue
There's no words I could say to make me change
My minds made up, my thoughts stay the same
Baby, I love you
We'll make it through
I'll love you til we're black and we're blue
There's no words I could say to make me change
My minds made up, my thoughts stay the same
Baby, I love you
We'll make it through
The lyrics to "Black & Blue" by Carter Hulsey are a testament to the power of love and commitment. The opening line, "I'll love you til we're black and we're blue," is a metaphor for being bruised and battered, but still being together. Despite the struggles and fights that the couple has been through, the singer's mind is made up and he knows that he will love her no matter what. The line, "We'll make it through," shows that he is confident in their future together, regardless of the obstacles they may face. The second verse talks about the challenges they have gone through together, such as fights and financial struggles, but the singer is willing to make it work because they share the same dreams. The final verse shows the longing the singer has for his partner when they are apart. The last line, "You're singing your dreams / Now you're singing my name," is a beautiful image of her pursuing her own goals, but still acknowledging their love for one another.

I'll love you til we're black and we're blue
I will love you until we have been through rough times and our love has left us beaten and bruised
There's no words I could say to make me change
There is nothing that could make me stop loving you
My minds made up, my thoughts stay the same
My decision to love you is final and unchanging, no matter what happens
Baby, I love you
I am deeply in love with you
We'll make it through
We will get through any obstacle or hardship together
The hole in my head is from the fire in your tongue
The emotional pain in my head is caused by the harsh words spoken during our fights
Our fights with the sink, our fights in the sun
Our arguments happen everywhere, even while doing the simplest things or enjoying a beautiful day outside
The rinse in my hands, the bills on these strings
I am struggling to make ends meet financially, but I will do whatever it takes to make our dreams come true
But i'll make it work, cause these are our dreams
Despite the difficulties, I will work hard to make our shared dreams a reality
I lie awake alone in my bed
I am unable to sleep, feeling lonely and missing you
Needles can't fix this hole in my chest
Even though I am physically healthy, I am emotionally wounded and in pain from missing you
And you're in some town a thousand miles away
You are far away from me, living your dreams in another town
You're singing your dreams
You are pursuing your passion and working towards achieving your goals
Now you're singing my name
You are thinking of me and including me in your dreams and plans

@Wachubalak
Dear Chiara, I knew in our Sophomore year that you were something special. No one had ever cared for me like you had and when I left you in the Philippines to live with my dad in the states, I thought about us the other 2 years of my High school life while we were apart. Now that we've been talking the last 5 months everyday online, you've made me feel again. I've had and always will love you. The Pacific and the miles between San Francisco and Manila will never stop us. I love you. Love, Daniel
