Ever And Ever Before
For King & Country's song is a heartfelt love ballad celebrating a marriage that has grown stronger through trials. The lyrics reflect on the couple's journey from their first meeting, through vows of sickness and health, to facing challenges together and emerging resilient. The repeated declaration of loving each other more than ever emphasizes enduring commitment. While the song is not explicitly religious, its themes of steadfast love, support, and perseverance resonate with Christian values of covenant love and faithfulness. The imagery of evergreen and evening breeze conveys lasting devotion through all seasons of life.
We started dancing, remember the first night we met
You wanted to lead me, but you didn't know all the steps
Oh, we started falling, but darlin', we haven't stopped yet
It's funny how we thought this is as good as it gets
Oh, I love you
Oh, I love you more
Than ever and ever before
I love you
Oh, I love you more
Than ever and ever before
Ever and ever before
It was romantic when we said, "In sickness and health"
I never imagined we would be living it out so soon, so soon
You carried me when I couldn't stand on my own two feet
We went through the fire, came out the other side as strong as you and I could be
Oh, I love you
Oh, I love you more
Than ever and ever before
I love you
Oh, I love you more
Than ever and ever before
Ever and ever before
Ever and ever before
Even in the winter
We'll be evergreen
Even in the summer
You'll be my evening breeze
Even when the storm breaks
Even when it all shakes
Holding every heartbreak
You're my ever and ever before
Forever and ever more
Oh, I love you
Oh, I love you more
Than ever and ever before
I love you
Oh, I love you more
Than ever and ever before
I love you
Oh, I love you more
Than ever and ever before
I love you
Oh, I love you more
Than ever and ever before
Ever and ever before
Ever and ever before
Ever and ever before
Ever and ever before
Ever and ever before
