Not One Minute More
Earl Grant Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Chorus]
I'll only love you
As long as the sea
Rolls on endlessly
To the shore
I'll love you til then
Not one minute more
I'll only love you
Til there's only night
And the sun
The sun gives no light as before
I'm gonna love you til then
Not one minute more

I'm yours, heart and soul, I'm yours
And all that I'll ever possess
But if you should say to me
Will you always be
I'll just have to confess

I'll only love you
As long as the beat
The beat of my heart
Can rest me still once more

I can love you til then
Not one minute more




I know I can love you til then
Not one minute more

Overall Meaning

In the song "Not One Minute More" by Earl Grant, the singer expresses his deep love for someone and promises to love them until the end of time. The chorus repeats the same sentiment over and over again, with the singer declaring that he will only love his beloved as long as the sea rolls on endlessly to the shore. This metaphor suggests that the singer's love is vast and never-ending, like the sea.


The second verse continues this theme, suggesting that the singer's love will endure even when the sun no longer gives light as it did before. This line can be interpreted in a few different ways, but it likely refers to a time when things might become difficult or when the singer's beloved might go through dark times. However, the singer promises that he will still love them even then.


The last verse brings the song back to the singer's personal experience, declaring that he is his beloved's heart and soul, but that he can only promise to love them as long as the beat of his heart can rest him still one more time. This line suggests that the singer's love is contingent on his physical presence and his ability to express love, which is ultimately limited.


Overall, "Not One Minute More" is a song about deep, enduring love that endures through the ages. The lyrics suggest that love is infinite and that it can never be extinguished, even by the passage of time.

I'll only love you
As long as the sea
Rolls on endlessly
To the shore
I'll love you til' then
Not one minute more

I'll only love you
Til' there's only night
And the sun
The sun gives no light as before
I'll love you til' then
Not one minute more

I'm yours, heart and soul, I'm yours
And all that I possess
But if you should say to me
Will you always be
I would confess

I'll only love you
As long as the beat
Of my heart can repeat
Still once more

I'll love you til' then
Not one minute more
I'll love you til' then
Not one minute more
