Spend My Life With You
Tamia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh oh
Um oh
La la la
Oh yeah

I never knew such a day could come
And I never knew such a love could be inside of one
And I never knew what my life was for
But now that you're here I know for sure

I never knew til I looked in your eyes (oh baby)
I was incomplete til the day you walked into my life (um, hm)
And I never knew that my heart could feel so precious and pure
One love so real, real

Can I just see you every morning when (every morning, babe)
I open my eyes
Can I just feel your heart beating beside me every night (every day)
Can we just feel this way together til the end of all time
(Can I just spend my life) Can I just spend my life with you (um, hm)

Now baby the days and the weeks and the years will roll by
But nothing will change the love inside of you and I

And baby I'll never find any words that could explain
Just how much my heart, my life, my soul you've changed

Can you run to these open arms when no one else understands
Can we tell God and the whole world I'm your woman and you're my man
Can you just feel how much I love you with one touch of my hand
Can I just spend my life with you

No touch has ever felt so wonderful (you are incredible)

Not a deeper love I've ever known (never let you go)

I swear this love is true (now and forever to you, to you, oh, oh)

Can I just see you every morning when I open my eyes
Can I just feel your heart beating beside me every night
Can we just feel this way together til the end of all time
Can I just spend my life with you
Can you run to these open arms when no one else understands
Can we tell God and the whole world
(You're my woman) and (you're my man)
Can you just feel how much I love you with one touch of my hand
Can I just spend my life with you

Can I just spend my life with you
Can I just spend my life with you (forever here with you)
Can I just spend my life with you





Can I just see you every morning when I open my eyes
Oh oh

Overall Meaning

Tamia’s “Spend My Life with You” is a soulful R&B ballad that expresses the depth of love that the singer feels towards her partner. In the first verse of the song, Tamia expresses the sentiment that she never knew such a day could come and such a love could be inside of one. She also admits that she never knew what her life was for until her partner arrived. This indicates that the singer found purpose for her life and discovered true love when she met her partner.


Tamia sings in the pre-chorus that she didn't realize she was incomplete until her partner walked into her life. The chorus then asks for a future with her partner, expressed through the request to see and feel her partner every morning and night respectively, and to feel that way together forever. The second verse emphasizes the timeless nature of their love, indicating that even as time passes, her feelings will never change. She also promises to never find words that could explain the depth of her feelings.


The bridge of the song poses questions to her partner, questioning whether he'll always come to her when no one else understands and whether they can tell everyone about their love. She finishes by expressing her love through the touch of her hand and stating her desire to spend her life with her partner.

I found the love of my life 13 years ago. However, anger and my need for control destroyed the love God had blessed us with. My life has been ripped apart because of my lack of understanding of what it was to be a man and love with respect, kindness, gentleness and without being selfish. I have given all my flaws to the one who can make all things right. I have asked him to come into my life, heal and transform me into the man he always intended me to be. The man my wife deserved, and the father my sons needed. God is the only one that make a way. My trust is in him for he is becoming the change in me I could not make in myself. If you are out there and you feel all hope is lost, don’t give up. Cry out to him and he will meet you where you are, pick you up and hold you in his arms. There is peace everlasting in his presence and his love will always find a way. Yield unto his will over you life and know that he is making a way for you today. God is making a way for me today, and one day, in his time, his will be done. Amen! Trust the process and he will see you through.

@FireBride

Praying for you please pray for my husband David to get a tender heart too. God bless you man of God!!
