Keep on Loving You
R* Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's hard for me to say the things
I want to say sometimes
There's no one here but you and me
And that broken old street light
Lock the doors
We'll leave the world outside
All I've got to give to you
Are these five words when I
Thank you for loving me
For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
For parting my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me
Thank you for loving me
I never knew I had a dream
Until that dream was you
When I look into your eyes
The sky's a different blue
Cross my heart
I wear no disguise
If I tried, you'd make believe
That you believed my lies
Thank you for loving me
For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
For parting my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me
You pick me up when I fall down
You ring the bell before they count me out
If I was drowning you would part the sea
And risk your own life to rescue me
And I and I
Will love you baby
Always and I 'll be there forever
End the day always
I 'll be there to the stars and Stripess
To the heaven spurs and worst of right
Made when I die you will be all my mine
And I love you always
Thank you for loving me
For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
For parting my lips
When I couldn't breathe




Thank you for loving me
Thank you for loving me

The song "Keep On Loving You" by R* is a heartfelt expression of love and gratitude. The lyrics talk about the difficulty of expressing one's emotions sometimes and the comfort of being with the person one loves. The broken old street light is symbolic of the imperfections in the world outside, but locking the doors shuts them out and creates a safe space for the two people to connect. The singer thanks their partner for being there for them when they couldn't see or breathe, acknowledging their own vulnerabilities and the support they've received.


The second verse reveals that the singer never knew what their dream was until they met their partner, and now everything seems different with them. The line "cross my heart, I wear no disguise" affirms the sincerity of their feelings and the fact that they're not hiding anything from their loved one. The chorus repeats the gratitude for the partner's love and support, and the bridge adds another layer to the appreciation by acknowledging how the partner lifts them up, saves them from danger, and loves them unconditionally.


Overall, "Keep On Loving You" is a tender and emotional song that conveys the depth of the singer's feelings for their partner and their appreciation for everything they do. It speaks to the universal human need for connection, love, and understanding, and the comfort of having someone who sees us for who we are and loves us anyway.

This song is about his wife banging other men before they got married and he married her anyway cause he told her he'd love her forever no matter what 😬

There are certain 80’s songs that give me an overwhelmingly painful and bittersweet sense of nostalgia. This is definitely one of them.
