It does not tell a story or even offer any kind of coherent progression of thought in terms of expressing a romantic idea or philosophical observation or musing on some kind of overarching theme. Each verse has very little to do with the other verses in the song. It reads like something a 13-year-old who speaks English as a second language would’ve written. Lyrically, this song doesn’t have any kind of logically cohesive meaning. Plenty of songs have charted based solely on the artist’s performance and a catchy hook. But there are plenty of examples of great hit songs that don’t really have any discernible meaning in the lyrics. If it wasn’t for Lionel Richie‘s memorable vocal stylings, a hummable melody and that catchy bridge that beaks into a brief rock groove, and the fact it was used a the featured song in a hit movie, I wonder if anyone would’ve ever cared about this song. It just jumps from one random thought to another, put to music and broken up with the nonsensical chorus “say you, say me, say it together naturally” which makes no grammatical sense. You've got someone there to say, "I'll show you" Seems the hardest thing to do is to find a friend or two He has no power over me, but the world must know that I love the Father that is why I do everything as he commands me.People in the park playing games in the dark I cannot talk with you much longer, because the ruler of this world is coming. I have told you this now before it all happens, so that when it does happen, you will believe. You heard me say to you, ‘I am leaving, but I will come back to you.’ If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father for he is greater than I. Do not be worried and upset do not be afraid. “Peace is what I leave with you it is my own peace that I give you. The Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything and make you remember all that I have told you. “I have told you this while I am still with you. And the teaching you have heard is not mine, but comes from the Father, who sent me. Those who do not love me do not obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and my Father and I will come to them and live with them. Jesus answered him, “Those who love me will obey my teaching. Judas (not Judas Iscariot) said, “Lord, how can it be that you will reveal yourself to us and not to the world?” My Father will love those who love me I too will love them and reveal myself to them.” “Those who accept my commandments and obey them are the ones who love me. When that day comes, you will know that I am in my Father and that you are in me, just as I am in you. In a little while the world will see me no more, but you will see me and because I live, you also will live. “When I go, you will not be left all alone I will come back to you. But you know him, because he remains with you and is in you. The world cannot receive him, because it cannot see him or know him. He is the Spirit, who reveals the truth about God. I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, who will stay with you forever. “If you love me, you will obey my commandments.
