Interesting facts and trivia about Love of a Lifetime (2024 Remaster). By Songfacts®.

A very romantic song about unwavering devotion, it's hard to believe that lead singer CJ Snare had not yet found his "love of a lifetime" when he wrote it, but that was the case. "I thought it was a nice ideal and it was something cool to write about," he said in our interview. "And apparently it's panned out for a lot of people: We get a lot people that come up and say, 'We got married to that song and we're still married.'"

CJ Snare had not yet formed FireHouse when he wrote this song. He had a gig playing solo in a hotel lounge with a keyboard and drum machine. One night after his set, he came back to the lounge, enjoyed some free beer, and came up with the song.

With a sentiment about a love that lasts forever, this quickly became a very popular first dance song for newly married couples. It's a classic hair band power ballad similar to many others that were big at the time, some by groups like Sheriff (""When I'm With You""), Bad English ("When I See You Smile") and Extreme ("More Than Words").
