Analysis of Till The End



Since you are my megastar and my classic ideal
I will travel from afar and hazard an ordeal.

Since you are my archangel and my protective shield
I will spin the carousel and your magnetic field.

Since you are my utter dream and my fond fantasy
I will bypass the mainstream and launch your odyssey.

Since you are my confidant and my trusted ally
I will give you what you want and, anyhow, I'll try.

Since you are my sustenance and my daily cuisine
I will fan the complaisance and copy your routine.

Since you are my dearest friend and my chosen lover
I will be there to the end or till you recover.
