Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Love ain't going away, love is always secure
Life's not always perfect, but love's always forever
Let's let true love connect; let's try lasting forever
I'm so ready to love; I'm so ready to promise my all
I'm so ready to give till the day that my life is no more
I'll be everything that this woman could possibly be
Be the man of my dreams and get down on one knee, love
Say you'll be all I need, and then ask me to marry you, my love
Let's take two golden bands, and let's walk down the isle, love
I'll say I do, and you'll say I do; make a golden commitment, oh
I'm so ready to love; I'm so ready to promise my all, love
And I'm so ready to give till the day that my life is no more
I'll be everything that this woman could possibly be, yes, I will
'Cause I'm ready to be like the olden days when commitment was golden
Let's last forever (let's last forever)
No typical American shady love
Let's stay together (let's stay together)
Pray God smile upon ours
I'm so ready to love; I'm so ready to promise my all, yes, I am
I'm so ready to give till the day that my life is no more
I'll be everything that this woman could possibly be, yes, I will
'Cause I'm ready to be like the olden days when commitment was golden
I'm so ready to love; I'm so ready to promise my whole all, yeah, yeah
And I'm so ready to give till the day that my life is no more
And I'll be everything that this woman could possibly be
'Cause I'm ready to be like the olden days when commitment was golden
Golden, golden
Oh, oh, my
Golden, golden love
'Cause commitment is golden
Mmm, mmm
