Lyrics meaning

The lyrics express a strong promise of lasting love. At first, the speaker urges the other person not to wait and to open their heart. The feeling then develops from eager desire into reassurance: the speaker promises to stay close as the couple grows older and to keep giving love and happiness.

The repeated idea of love that age or time cannot destroy presents affection as something stronger than the changes of life. The phrases โ€œwear it downโ€ and โ€œtear it downโ€ suggest trying to weaken or damage that love, though the speaker believes it would take an impossibly long time to do so. Calling the love โ€œno fictionโ€ and โ€œno actโ€ emphasizes that the speaker sees it as sincere, not pretend.

Some wording is open to interpretation. โ€œA hundred lifetimes to live it downโ€ may mean the love is so deep that it would take ages to diminish, but the phrase can also sound like an exaggeration for emotional intensity rather than a literal claim. The lyrics are confident and idealistic, yet their promise is not simply that feelings will never change: the speaker also offers practical companionship, saying they will be there โ€œevery step of the way.โ€
