"You keep me comin' back for more "
2. What does the quote above mean? Is 'keep sb. coming back for more' a common usage?

"someone who will turn your world around"
3. What does the quote above mean? Is 'turn sb's world around' a common usage?

"Cause our love will light the way "
4. What does the quote above mean? Is 'light the way' a common usage?

"For love to come along "
5. What does 'along' mean?

"Through the good times and the bad"
6. What does the quote above mean? Is it a common usage?

Thanks in advance.

1. What does the quote above mean? Does it mean we've been experienced something before? Is 'down that road' a common usage? (shouldn't bin be been?) Yes, it should be "We've been down that road before." We have experienced it together at an earlier time. Yes, it is common usage.

"You keep me comin' back for more "
2. What does the quote above mean? Is 'keep sb. coming back for more' a common usage? Yes, it is common usage. Someone who cannot get enough love or attention may 'keep coming back for more'.

"someone who will turn your world around"
3. What does the quote above mean? Is 'turn sb's world around' a common usage? Someone who will change your life will 'turn your world around.' A young boy who is in constant trouble could have his 'world turned around' by a devoted coach, teacher, or member of the clergy, for example. Yes, it is a commonly used expression.

"Cause our love will light the way "
4. What does the quote above mean? Is 'light the way' a common usage?
Our love is so strong that it will light our path as we do things together. Yes, it is commonly heard.

"For love to come along "
5. What does 'along' mean?
To come our way. For us to find each other...to become soul mates.

"Through the good times and the bad"
6. What does the quote above mean? Is it a common usage?
Through life's ups and downs... the good days and the difficult days that we will share. Yes, common usage.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Amigos4
