Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh, ooh...
Yeah, yeah...
I would never let you go
Ooh...
This time it's forever

Girl I want to know what's on your mind
'Cause when I look into your eyes they're saying words you don't express
I don't want you feeling you're wasting your time
While everyday I live just to please you, that's my only desire

If you think that this love won't last
'Cause of what you been through in the past
I'm loving you only You don't have to worry no, no, no...
If you're afraid to let your feeling show
'Cause inside you're just not sure
I'm gonna show you that nothing's changed oh, no...

[Chorus:]
I would never let you go
No one's gonna love you more
This time it's forever
I would never let you go
No one's gonna love you more
This time it's forever

Girl I want to be right where you are
Sharing every moment together
Everyday, every night
Girl I promise you that I'll be faithful yeah...
Because your happiness is all I'm living for oh, yeah, yeah, yeah...

[Chorus: Repeat 2X]

If you think that this love won't last, won't last...
'Cause of what you been through in the past
I'm loving you only you don't have to worry no oh, no, no...
If you're afraid to let your feeling show
'Cause inside you're just not sure
I'm gonna show you that nothing's changed hey...





[Chorus:]
