As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early May
Just as hate knows love's the cure
you can rest your mind assured that
I'll be loving you always


As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing will grow older everyday
Just as all that's born is new
you know what I say is true
That I'll be loving you always


Unitl the rainbow burns the stars out of the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more


Did you know that true love asks for nothing
Her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day


As today I know I'm living but tomorrow
could make me the past
But that I musn't fear
I know deep in my mind
The love of me I've left behind
Cause I'll be loving you always


Until the rainbow burns the sun out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream
Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more


Did you know that true love asks for nothing
Her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day


As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early May
For now I know deep in my mind
The love of me I've left behind
Cause I'll be loving you always


Until the rainbow burns the sun out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream


Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more

    All George Michael should know that he is a big Steve Wonder fan. He has expressed prue joy and excitement when performed with Steve Wonder for the first time on one of televised Motown Anniversary Reunions. When saw he perform with Smoky Robinson Careless Whispers, he looked nervious, but Smoky gave the okay to carry his without him. He was excited and at his most happiness when the moment Steve Wonder invited he to sing with him. It was like watch his dream come true, and from that moment on George's vocal range became stronge and he was more confident performer.

    It is sad that this song featuring M J B lost it chance to be a big for her and George. Because of His media exposure on about the being OUTSIDE. Love George Love him. This was a sad and not fair moment for this song to be release.

    The original was by Stevie Wonder and that George Michael covered it. Same thing goes for ''They Won't Go When I Go''.

In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
