Walking together
Piet Veerman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I, pray that you, will stand by me
My soul′s laid bare, here while I hold you
Oh after all the trials, that we've been trough
I′m tired of walkin' all alone
Without you I feel so far from home
From now on babe, we'll walk together
Everytime I see your love for me I found my Paradise
Then I realize, you′re guidin' me
By the love light in your eyes
Everytime I hear your heart so near, time it seems to fly
I recall the day you came my way
Brought a meaning to my life
Amor my love, we can′t go wrong
Now you'll be a friend when nights grow long
I know that we′re made for each other
I'll be by your side untill I die.
The lyrics in Piet Veerman's song Walking Together express a deep sense of commitment and eternal love for his partner. The opening line "Love should be eternity" sets the tone for the rest of the lyrics. The singer is expressing his hope that the love he shares with his partner will be everlasting, and that she will stay by his side no matter what happens. He is vulnerable and opens up his soul to her, describing how he feels when he holds her.
The singer also acknowledges the struggles that they have gone through as a couple. The lines "after all the trials, that we've been through" suggest that they have faced challenges together, but have come out on the other side stronger. He admits to hurting her in the past "Every time I see your love for me I found my Paradise, Then I realize, you're guiding me, By the love light in your eyes. Every time I hear your heart so near, time it seems to fly" but seems to be making a promise to do better in the future.
The chorus reiterates the importance of walking together through life. The singer describes feeling lost and far from home without his partner, but with her by his side, he is sure that they can tackle anything that comes their way. He professes that they are made for each other, and that he will stay with her until the end of his life.
