Chris Medina - What Are Words

Anywhere you are, I am near
Anywhere you go, I'll be there
Anytime you whisper my name, you'll see
How every single promise I keep
Cuz what kind of guy would I be
If I was to leave when you need me most

What are words
If you really don't mean them
When you say them
What are words
If they're only for good times
Then they don't
When it's love
Yeah, you say them out loud
Those words, They never go away
They live on, even when we're gone

And I know an angel was sent
just for me
And I know I'm meant to be where I am
And I'm gonna be
Standing right beside her tonight
And I'm gonna be by your side
I would never leave when she needs me most

What are words
If you really don't mean them
When you say them
What are words
If they're only for good times
Then they don't
When it's love
Yeah, you say them out loud
Those words, they never go away
They live on, even when we're gone

Anywhere you are, I am near
Anywhere you go, I'll be there
And I'm gonna be here forever more
Every single promise I keep
Cuz what kind of guy would I be
If I was to leave when you need me most

I'm forever keeping my angel close

The Story Behind :

Chris Medina fell in love with Juliana the first moment he saw her and the two became engaged in the coffee shop she worked in 2007. They had planned to wed two years after getting engaged, but shortly before they could walk down the aisle, Juliana suffered a brain injury in a tragic car accident. On the exact day the were supposed to get married, he shared a song he wrote for his ladylove on Facebook. His heartfelt lyrics.

" I am giving all i have got to give

To pull you through

To set you free

More than the vow

Through thick and thin

I am living it

In your darkest hour i will be your light "

What are words if you really dont mean them when you say it? What are words if they are only for good times? I like this two sentences in the song " What Are Words". Meaningful. Understandable promises and compliances made during sweet times of couples. But what is the meaning of those words when you dont even fulfilling them? What is those words mean when they only for the sweetener of times. I heard before this quotation from guys, "promises are made to be broken". Well what i can say is, promises are not meant for broken. Promises are debt unpaid. There is a price to pay. So whenever you have made promises and words, seriously you are reliable for it then. 

Dont break the heart of your loves one. They are the one that you shouldnt be selfish with. Nowadays who will be able to do that? He is definitely one in a million. Promises are love. They never go away, they live on even when we are gone. Chris's selfless love to Juliana. They made me believed in love, again. True love does exist in this world!

All the best for them.
