My Way
Jennifer Rafferty Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I know someday you will be mine
I often wondered when that day will come
To me you are the only one
And you know where I'm coming from
We've got something in common you and I
So take my love it's yours
It's yours forever more
Chorus
I'll be here when you realise
There when you finally find
Out what you want to say
I'll be here if you take a chance
There when you take a glance my way
When you know what your heart is for
Know what you need it for
True we can make mistakes
But I'll be here when you want to stay
There when you want to look
My Way, My Way
Even if the moon don't rise
I'll see the night sky in your eyes
Someone somewhere sees it oh so clear
I can give you so much more
Than what you have been looking for
I know you think that love just disappears
So take my love it's yours
It's yours forever more
Chorus
In Jennifer Rafferty's song My Way, the lyrics convey a message of love, hope and persistence. The singer in the song is deeply in love with someone and believes that someday the person will reciprocate the feelings. The first stanza says, "Even if the sun don't shine, I know someday you will be mine". This implies that no matter how bleak the situation may seem or how uncertain the future may be, the singer is convinced that love will eventually prevail.
The second stanza says, "Even if the moon don't rise, I'll see the night sky in your eyes". This line suggests that even when the person is seemingly absent or distant, the singer's love for them remains strong and unchanging. The singer also appears to empathize with the object of their affection, recognizing that they may have had failed relationships before and may be doubtful about love, as seen in the line "I know you think that love just disappears".
The chorus of the song emphasizes the singer's commitment to their love interest, promising to be there when they come to the realization of their feelings, take risks and make mistakes. The use of repetition in the chorus - "I'll be here" and "There when" - emphasizes the singer's unwavering devotion to their love interest and their willingness to provide support and understanding.
Overall, My Way is a touching love song that celebrates the beauty of love, the power of hope, and the persistence that is needed when it comes to love.

Than what you have been looking for
I can offer you more than you're currently searching for
I know you think that love just disappears
I understand that you may have lost hope in love, but I won't let that happen with us.
