Forever Love
Robin Thicke(로빈 시크) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can’t carry the weight around baby
How could I have ever belonged
Learning all my lessons
Dangerous impressions
Pushed you right out of my world
I know that you and I have tried very hard
To find a different result
But how can we be patient when we're always racing
And no one’s ever there to hold

Any time you need a friend baby
I will be the one that you want
And if you’re ever down and out baby
I will be there biggin' you up
And you can lean on me anytime baby
For anything you want and need
Oh I don’t need a reason
Memory or a season
It’s longer than always could be
And further than the eyes can see

Forever love
Oh forever love
Forever mine, forever yours
Forever love
Forever love
Oh it's forever love
Forever mine, forever yours
Forever love, forever love

Impossible, impossible
It’s possible, anything's possible

So come on over baby start the healing
Let me get a good look at you
'Cause I miss our discussion
Whispering and blushing
Secrets that only we know

Any time you need a friend baby
I can be the one that you want
And if you’re ever down and out baby
I can be the one that you want
You can lean on me anytime baby
For anything you want and need
Oh I don’t need a reason
Memory or a season
Everyday I will believe
That you and I were meant to be

Forever love
Oh forever love
Forever mine, forever yours
Forever love
Forever love
Oh it’s forever love
Forever mine, forever yours
Forever love

When you’re broken
Where you’re blind
And you need someone to show you the light
I’ll be right there baby
Holding you tight
'Cause if you ever need a friend baby
I can be the one that you want
And if you’re ever down and out baby
I can be the one that you want
You can lean on me anytime baby
For anything you want and need
Oh I don’t need a reason
Memory or a season
Everyday I will believe
It’s longer than always could be
Oh it’s further than the eyes can see
More real than any dream could be
Oh you and I, you and I
You and I we were family

Forever love
Oh forever love
Forever mine, forever yours
Forever love
Forever love
Oh it’s forever love




Forever mine, forever yours
Forever mine, forever yours

I remembered God gave me this video I could never imagine how real it would be. I was so lost he came and got me lost and let me know while I was cursing him. He would forever be the love of my life I couldn't fight against that. I was so weak with repentance you can't imagine just how deeply sorrowful I became to know how God loves you in the worst. That's the place God showed me your lost because we are without each other. Oh 😣 God I'm weeping just thinking about that day.

@chronocross85

Its a lose/lose situation for Robin. If he doesn't try people will say he doesn't care. If he expresses himself and tries to get her back people will say he is pathetic and desperate. This isn't some ex-girlfriend. This is the mother of his child and his wife who he has been with since his teenage years. 

@Mrmedia046

At the end of the day, it doesn't matter what any of us think. It's a journey or a conclusion they must make. All that people like us can do is hope that it all works out for the best for the both of them.

@havingaTIFF

Best response I've seen so far. This is his wife and I could appreciate anyone fighting for his/her marriage. People make mistakes everyday, no ones perfect.

@84bonez

I thank you for this. So true. But I respect him for this. Not many men would that. If I was ever in his situation I'd do the same as him but I'm pretty sure he doesn't care if people think it's pathetic as long as she comes back.

@Mrmedia046

Sigh... Watching the results on Twitter's Askrobin feed just confirmed something, Today's society ain't shit..

@tajolmia

I made the same mistake with my wife. I ended up taking a lot for granted thinking I was getting away with it just to learn that she was silently letting it slide to save our family. No sense in opening the wounds trying to make amends. There's no getting back together and the best thing I can do is make sure we have a mature, amicable relationship. But Forever in each other's hearts.

@angeljones51

I'm not going to lie. When he performed this on the bet awards, I shed a tear LOL. Great song and great voice. I don't know if this is increasing or decreasing his chances to get Paula back, but he talented. You can tell he really love her when he was performing, but people need to realize what they have while they got it. Wish him well, and probably going to buy this album.

@curtisostriker9952

Very touching and beautiful song. This right here is the very essence of Robin Thicke.
He has always been an outstanding writer and vocalist supreme.
Blurred lines though a catchy tune seemed like an ill fit for him.
This entire album is a masterpiece in baring ones soul. Kudos to Thicke here.
