As Long As You Love Me
Lindee Link Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We're under pressure
Seven billion people in the world trying to fit in
Keep it together
Smile on your face even though your heart is frowning
But, hey, now, you know, girl
We both know it's a cruel world
But I will take my chances
As long as you love me
We could be starving
We could be homeless
We could be broke
As long as you love me
I'll be your platinum
I'll be your silver
I'll be your gold
As long as you love me
As long as you love me (love me)
I'll be your soldier
Fighting every second of the day for your dreams, girl
I'll be your "H.O.V.A."
You can be my "Destiny's Child" on scene, girl
So don't stress and don't cry
Oh, we don't need no wings to fly
Just take my hand
As long as you love me
We could be starving
We could be homeless
We could be broke
As long as you love me
I'll be your platinum
I'll be your silver
I'll be your gold
As long as you love me
As long as you love me (love me)
I don't know if this makes sense
But you're my "hallelujah"
Give me a time and place
I'll rendezvous it
I'll fly you to it
I'll beat you there
Girl, you know I got you
Us, trust
A couple things I can't spell without u
Now we on top of the world
'Cause that's just how we do
Used to tell me sky's the limit
Now the sky's our point of view
Man, we stepping out like "woa" (oh, God)
Cameras point and shoot
Ask me "what's my best side?"
I stand back and point at you (you, you)
You the one that I argue with
Feel like I need a new girl to be bothered with
But the grass ain't always greener on the other side
It's green where you water it, so, I know
We got issues, baby, true, true, true
But I'd rather work on this with you
Than to go ahead and start with someone new
As long as you love me
We could be starving
We could be homeless
We could be broke
As long as you love me
I'll be your platinum
I'll be your silver
I'll be your gold
As long as you love me
As long as you love me (everything I need)
As long as you love me
You love-me, you love-me (Yeeeah)
As long as you love me




You love-me, you love-me (Yeeeeeeah)
As long as you love me
