DAY BY DAY
Trudy Desmond Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And day by day my love seems to grow
There isn't any end to my devotion
It's deeper dear by far than any ocean
I find that day by day you're making all my dreams come true
And (so) come what may I want you to know
I'm (that I am) yours alone, and I'm in love (in love) to stay
(I said, "day by day")
(As we go through the years day by day)
Trudy Desmond's song Day By Day is a romantic ballad that explores the depth and endurance of love. The opening line, "Day by day I'm falling more in love with you," highlights the theme of love growing stronger with time. The repetition of "day by day" throughout the song serves to emphasize the gradual nature of this growth, and how love requires patience, perseverance, and commitment. The second line, "And day by day my love seems to grow," reinforces the same sentiment, and expresses the idea that the singer's love is not only deepening but also expanding.
The third and fourth lines, "There isn't any end to my devotion / It's deeper dear by far than any ocean," portray a love that is boundless and all-encompassing, surpassing the limits of what can be understood or measured. The comparison to the ocean, which is vast and infinite, adds to the imagery of the love being limitless and eternal.
The chorus, "I find that day by day you're making all my dreams come true / And (so) come what may I want you to know / I'm (that I am) yours alone, and I'm in love (in love) to stay / As we go through the years day by day," expresses the idea that the singer's love is not just romantic but also grounded in the reality of building a life together. The presence of the phrase "come what may" acknowledges that life is unpredictable and full of challenges, but the singer's commitment to their love is unwavering. The final line, "As we go through the years day by day" underscores the longevity of this love, and how it will continue to grow and evolve as time passes.
