I have loved this song for a long time. But never understood some of the lyrics. I keep studying them. I have loved "It's A Wonderful Life" the movie even longer. Cant help but notice the connection and why did I never notice it before....the whole movie is about the choice not to commit suicide.. consider it this way... Dark of the night I found, without My Love, my love (Thinking of suicide, without Mary there, he comes to see his life differently by the events that transpire throughout the movie... which is how the movie starts...and so does the song) Outsider ecstatic love, what'd we think we'd find (George Bailey-ecstatic) over that broken road out past the landmines (he wanted away from that town and didn't make it on his honeymoon. didn't make it past the landmines.) Im gonna keep your heart, im gonna keep your heart, with the world all falling apart, im gonna keep your heart. (Mary gave him the honeymoon money to save the Buidling and Loan) can I coax it out its shell, brush the dust off, get its wings on, here in this little bell, do you also hear the singing love. ( the infamous bell where the angel gets it wings while the community sings) shine on light of love on all these bruises and scars The moon isn't a friend of us (possible play on Shakespeare. don't sware on the moon everchanging, George Bailey promised to rope it) but it can't cancel out the stars ( The stars in heaven talking and the people praying for George when he looses it- Even on the brightest moonlit night the brightest stars still shine. His problems on his darkest night didn't outshine their prayers) Drop all your clothes and Lies( about Mary dropping her robe and threatening to get it back) Wonder Woman of mine, kneeling above this playful body, teach superman to fly. (George was a superman of sorts, could do it all, but he needed Mary!) chorus How 'm I gonna keep your heart (angel shows a different story, a life without him) Tell a little tale, you're the kind that keeps the veil on...Biding time will tell us if and when to sail on... ( He was stalling George, and Biding time, making him think, he was removing the veil from George's thinking, that he didn't matter) All these blues I've cried, seem to 've come undone, Tried all the new liasons, still ended up in love. ( He sees things differently after seeing the new twist without him in her life) Still we're kind of shy, you have nothing to be ashamed of, girl its hard to tell if I'll ever feel the same love, ( he will never feel the same after seeing her life without him) I'm coming back to... (or turning back not sure) I'm coming back in love keep coming back for more... for more..... (the movie stole an endless Christmas audience that indefinitely comes back for more) repeat chorus and still, I'm gonna keep your heart. |

I think your missing lyrics are these. The song starts saying: There I could not have found, without my love, my love. and your other missing lyrics I believe come like this Though its hart to tell If I'll ever feel the same love I'm turning back to, I'm turning back to you. Keep coming back for more, for more. |
