Never Say Never
Jennifer Rush Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It was over, I was letting go
Another heart without a home
It was enough to make my world stop turning
I fell apart to easily
I was thinking love was not for me
How was I to know the kind of changes I'd go through
I swore I'd never fall in love again
That's when I met you

Never say never no
I'll never say never again

Looking back now like the setting sun
The hardest times have come and gone
You were enough to make this heart stop searchin'
You called my name and I let you in
With you I'm strong I can breathe again
How was I to know back then the best was yet to come
I swore I'd never fall in love again
Where did you come from

Never say never no
I'll never say never again

As sure as I'm standing here
As sure as the river's gotta run
You're here to remind me
That baby this world was made for love

Never say never no
I'll never say never again

How was I to know back then the best was yet to come
I swore I'd never fall in love again
Where did you come from

Never say never no
I'll never say never again





Now I believe in love

Her voice is Unique and Incomparable 🙀

Агата Алешина

Непревзойденный талант...пела свои песни,прекрасный голос....незаслуженно в забвении.....сегодня ей за 60....

Почему же в забвении, нет не согласен! У Джениффер, есть поклонники по всему Миру, её помнят и любят, её песни находятся на вершине списка лучших песен поколения, их слушают, поют, они актуальны до сих пор! А её авторский, всемирно известный хит, The Power of Love досих пор в рекорде, как самый продаваемый в женском исполнение! Не смотря на то, что ей не удалось (незаслуженно, плохие были менеджеры) добиться полного успеха в своей родной Америке, хотя она и там находилась в четвёртом десятке хит парадов, и была больше популярна как автор песен, на всех других Континентах она Супер Мега Звезда, Легенда! В Германии в 80х, её песни звучали из каждого окна! В Европе, Австралии, Африка, Япония..и т.д. альбомы, пластинки десяток лет находились на первых местах хит парадов!!!! Первые четыре альбома платиновые, следующий золотой! Дженнифер, впервые удалось на 100% слияние классики и эстрады в единый звук, чего до неё не удавалась никому из женщин, оперный, настоящий(100%) тип голоса меццо-сопрано(по оценкам профессионалов, единственный в Поп рок музыке) и полный диапазон, по совокупности вокальных данных, с Дженнифер не могут сравниться ни одна эстрадная певица, даже самая лучшая! ОНА БЫЛА, ЕСТЬ И БУДЕТ, ЛУЧШЕЙ ВЕЛИЧАЙШЕЙ ПЕВИЦЕЙ, СРЕДИ ЖЕНЩИН, В ПОП РОК МУЗЫКЕ, ВО ВСЕ ВРЕМЕНА! Просто время неумолимо бежит, Дженнифер и сейчас активна, ведёт здоровый образ жизни, занимается музыкой, пишет песни, преподает! Как сказал один человек, - вовремя уйти, это удел только ВЕЛИКИХ АРТИСТОВ!

BOB P

@jorge marroquin Здравствуйте, спасибо Вам! Всю жизнь являюсь безумным фанатом Дженнифер Раш, поэтому с большим интересом отслеживаю, всё, что можно о ней узнать, хотя узнать удаётся не много, её личная жизнь закрыта, а сайт уже несколько лет не активен! С творчеством Селин Дион я конечно знаком, хорошая певица, и песни её я иногда слушаю, но рассказать о ней, больше того, что написано в Википедии я не смогу! Всего хорошего Вам, мира и добра!

She is and always be a generational talent she wrote almost all her songs and her dancing and singing are things that melt the heart, I just wished she had been bigger here as she was around the world, the words of her songs touch to the core of any heart and her looks and songs will make you fall in Love , even to this day 9/5/2020 my heart and feeling when I listen to the words she sings and watch her dance with emotion it's so easy to fall in Love ...

J North

I definitely know what you mean. There are so very few of such accomplished all-round talents. And talents are born these days, too. But they are not looked for, not promoted, not given any good chances. There is something badly 'effed up with the world today.
