Worum geht es in dem Song?

"On with You" von John Hiatt handelt von einer langjährigen Beziehung, die durch Höhen und Tiefen gegangen ist. Der Text...

Twenty years and we’re still on the beat
Stretchin’ out and goin’ for it
I don’t know if these ends will ever meet
Thing with love is you can’t store it
Even when I was dead inside
You saw somethin’ to remind you
Of the man I was tryin’ to hide,
The man who needed just to find you
I just wanna go on with you
All the joy and pain and beauty too
Somethin’ in your eyes so rare and true
I just wanna go on with you, baby.
That’s when you knew I couldn’t trust anyone
That’s when you knew I couldn’t trust myself
You said, “What good is trust with out a smokin’ gun?”
If you can’t risk betrayal it just sits on a shelf
That’s when I knew I was in love with you
That’s when the walls started comin’ down
That’s when I reached out of the darkest blue
And you were there to bring me back around.
I just wanna go on with you
All the joy and pain and beauty too
Somethin’ in your eyes so rare and true
I just wanna go on with you, baby
I just wanna go on with you
It’s like livin’ in a dream
Or Wakin’ up in the middle of a scream
And realizin’ that you’re not alone
Or anyway the boogie man went home
I just wanna go on with you
All the joy and pain and beauty too
Somethin’ in your eyes so rare and true
I just wanna go on with you
I just wanna go on
I just wanna go on with you
I just wanna go
I just wanna, I just wanna
