Keep on Loving You
KWAYE Lyrics

The song "Keep on Loving You" by KWAYE is a love song with complex emotions that explore the strong bond between two people that keeps them together despite many challenges. The lyrics convey the idea that even though the singer's mind and heart may not be in agreement with the decision to stay in the relationship, his body feels and craves the affection of the other person. The opening lines, "Feet don’t fail me now / My mind, it don't speak too loud / And my heart, it won’t allow / My body to go," give a sense of hesitation and vulnerability that characterizes the singer's apprehension. Even when he admits that "Promises never count," he still cannot walk out of the relationship.

The chorus, "I should give up but I just keep on loving you / And it breaks my faith but it keeps me sane / If I walk away, it could be my grave," reflects the tension the singer feels and yet the strong attachment he has for his lover. The phrase "It breaks my faith, but it keeps me sane" suggests that despite the flaws, the singer's love for his partner gives him stability and hope.

Furthermore, the song reveals that the singer tries to convince himself that he is better for loving the partner, even if it might not be entirely true: "If you told me I'm made better by you / I might cry, 'cos I realise / That the better part of me feels its true / So I lie and tell myself it’s right when..." in this part he reveals that he may be aware that the situation is not ideal, but he chooses to overlook the signs of trouble and continue the relationship. In the end, despite the doubts, he keeps on loving the other person.
