Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause baby, you're the only one for me
I know it gets hard when I'm moving in and outta' state
But I promise my heart for you I would save
Just remember that
No matter how far I go
No one or nothing can change
Forever yours here I stand (Here I stand baby)
You're like a mirror to my soul, but a queen (My queen)
And finally now I know just what that means (Oh yeah, yeah)
You're the blessing that I never thought I would get
And to the Lord I humbly bow my head
Just remember that
No matter how far I go
And no matter how long it takes
No one or nothing can change
Forever yours here I stand (Here I stand baby)
Ever since you came (Since you came along)
It seems life (couldn't get it right)
I found I sunk so low, that there was no way I could be found
(Never thought love would find me)
And when we make love (every time you give, give to me your love)
You make feel a way I never felt,
With no one else, and I can't help myself
I'm telling you, that
No matter how far I go (yeah)
See no matter how long it takes (yeah)
No one or nothing, nothing baby, ever change the way I feel, I'm your man, Listen?
See, forever yours, yours, all yours, Here I stand (yeah)
No matter how far I go
And no matter how long it takes (yeah)
No one or nothing can change
Forever yours, I'll remain
Here I stand

A Honduran- American Dude born in Arizona! I like Mexican Music ( shipped across the border to Arizona).
My favorites music is from Afro- American musicians ( MJ, Usher, Rihanna, Drake, Mint Condition, Alicia Keys, Ledisi). Some people do not realize Latinos know quality music!
