about

Hey Folkers! So this is like... my first self produced song, so it is a little rough around the edges ;) It's about love enduring even the most challenging of relationships. If you want to know the story behind the song, check out my blog:

lyrics

Through & Through
Verse 1
Each time you put me down
Push me down, Pull me down
Try your best to keep me down,
I’ll rise above it
Each time you take for granted Everything I do
And take advantage of my kindness
I will keep on loving
And when sometimes I hold your hand Snuggle close cos you’re my man
And get the Icy shoulder
How it cuts me
Then I spend sleepless nights
asking myself why are you so cold
and what more can I do
To make you love me
And when you disappear into your shell Where I can’t reach
Refusing to communicate, I’ll keep on trying To bring you out and hold you close Give you the love you’ve never known And hope that somehow
I can save your souls from dying..
.. then maybe I can stop crying..
Chorus
No matter what you take I’m still giving However hard you make this I’m still living true
You tell me love is dead But I’m still loving you
Verse 2
Each time you criticise the way I carry on
And roll your eyes because I’m always wrong
I’ll just try harder
To make you proud and say out loud
How glad you are that I’m around
And smile the smile that makes my heart beat faster And when you tell me I should get out more And spend time with my friends
I’ll just pretend it doesn’t hurt my feelings Then when you say that you’re OK
And sit alone and sulk all day
I’ll try my best to guess what you are needing
And when you say you couldn’t give a damn What people think about you
I don’t understand but I admire you
I wish I wasn’t so obsessed and insecure Are they impressed? Will they accept me? No it’s better to be like you..
... but I can never be like you...
Chorus
No matter what you take I’m still giving However hard you make this I’m still living true
You tell me love is dead But I’m still loving...
You... ooh ooh...
And I love you through and Through... ooh.. ooh...

Verse 3
Call me a fool but I believe in me and you And I won’t give up hope
As long as we are both still living And if a miracle is all we need
To get us through
And keep us glued together
I will never give up.. Wishing...am I the only one wishing...?
Chorus
No matter what you take I’m still giving However hard you make this I’m still living true
Don’t tell me love is dead Cos I’m still loving you However long it takes
I will wait for you
So look into my face
And see the living truth That there’s a better way Right here for you to choose No matter what you say
No matter what you do
I’ll never walk away
Cos I love you Through and through
I love you through and through Love you through and through
