Keep On Walking
Ronan Keating Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
From someone or something
So scared what life could hold
Didn't even want to know
Each day I would stand against it
Put up my defenses
Wouldn't let nobody inside
Then you walked in my life
[Chorus]
Your love is all I know
Never let you go
Baby with you I choose my road
All my life
You're the reason why
Baby with you I walk that road
Now nothing can defeat me
Knowing you complete me
You make me stronger each day
You lead me all the way
Anything you want to do
I'll be there beside you
As long as you don't leave
My dreams are guaranteed
[Chorus]
I'll walk that road
Hand in hand
Till it ends
Nothing can stop me now
[Chorus]
Never let you go
Baby with you I choose my road
All my life
Your the reason why
Baby with you I'll walk that road
The lyrics of Ronan Keating's Keep On Walking describe a person who has always been afraid of life and what it could hold for them. The persona in the song sings about how they had always tried to protect themselves by putting up their defenses which prevented anyone from getting close to them. However, this all changes when the love of their life walks into their life. The love they share makes them feel complete and stronger each day. They become unafraid of anything that may come their way knowing that they will always have each other. The line "Anything you wanna do, I'll be there beside you" emphasizes how they have chosen to walk through life with their partner, and they will be there with them through thick and thin.
The chorus revolves around how their love is everything they know and how they have chosen to walk down the road of life together. The persona in the song is grateful for the love they have found and how it has changed their life. They are ready to take on any challenge knowing that they have someone to support and guide them through it. The final line of the chorus "Never let you go" depicts that the persona is never letting go of the love they have found and the happiness it brings.
Overall, the song is about finding someone who makes us complete and never wanting to let them go. It is about choosing to walk through life with someone we love and how they make us stronger and less afraid of the challenges that come our way.
