Still
Jennifer Rush Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Keep this promise I'm making
Heal this heart that you're saving
Let these words be free
Like pieces of me
Let them burn away through these spaces

When the last days have come
And it's all said and done
You will still be the one I belong to
No distance so far
Could keep us apart
Let the world en
But I'll love you still

Sweet perfect surrender
We'll keep falling forever
Let our hearts be free
Like we're meant to be
Let the light they shine bring it back to me

When the last days have come
And it's all said and done
You will still be the one I belong to
No distance so far
Could keep us apart
Let the world en
But I'll love you still

Stay in my arms till the sunrise
Stay in my heart for a lifetime
Heaven could fall but I will
Love you still

When the last days have come
And it's all said and done
You will still be the one I belong to
No distance so far
Could keep us apart




Let the world en
But I'll love you still.

I “missed” Jennifer in her prime—in fact, I only discovered her 2 months ago. I am a big fan of Celine and only discovered Jennifer because I came across Celine’s cover of POL including Jennifer. I couldn’t believe my ears.
I’m 84 and have heard them all, from Ginger Rogers to Edith Piaf to Vera Lynn. Then Diana Ross, Aretha Franklin, Barbara Streisand, Dusty Springfield, Tammy Wynette, and Bonnie Tyler. Add Gloria Gaynor, Connie Francis, Laura Branigan, Linda Ronstadt, Rita Coolidge, Celine, Mariah, and Whitney and you have the lineup of the greats right up to Adele and Susan Boyle.
But, Jennifer Rush has the all-around best female voice I have ever heard. Her operatic training adds an unmatched vibrato containing depth and texture. And she sings everything: opera, pop, rock, and ballads in English, Spanish, German, and Hungarian.
She also studied piano and violin at Juilliard. She has written or co-written the lyrics and music for many of her songs, done duets with Placido Domingo and Jose Carreras, Elton John and Brian May—sorry—Sir Brian May, Michael Bolton, and performed live all over the world—but not in America, except in March and April 1986 on the Carson show and the Dick Clark Show; that’s it.
Why is she the best? Effortless high range: (look at Celine’s cover with Jennifer singing “Power of Love” to see the ease with which Jennifer handles the highest notes.) Listen to “Who Wants to Live Forever” (with or without Brian—Sir Brian—May) as well as “Stronghold”, “Another Way”, “Hero of a Fool”, “I come Undone” and many more.
With her operatic training (her father, Maurice Stern (Mauro Lampi) and step-mother Rita Loving) she developed a superior vibrato, appropriate body language, and perfect interpretation, and because she wrote or co-wrote most of her songs, she injects them with a personal load of musical endorphins that hit your ears and your heart at the same time.
Yes. If Jennifer had decided to live her life in the US, she would still be in Las Vegas or on tour.
