Someone to Watch Over Me
Yearning for Love: A Serenade to the Heart's Search
Lyrics
There's a saying old says that love is blind
Love is often seen as not seeing faults or imperfections.
Still were often told, seek and ye shall find
People are encouraged to actively search for love.
So I'm going to seek a certain lad I've had in mind
Seeking a specific person she has in mind.
Looking everywhere, haven't found him yet
Continuing the search for this person.
Hes the big affair I cannot forget
The person is a significant memory she can't shake off.
Only man I ever think of with regret
He's the only one she regrets not being with.
I'd like to add his initial to my monogram
Desires to include his initial in her monogram, indicating closeness.
Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb?
Asking where the guiding, protective figure for her, like a shepherd, is.
There's a somebody I'm longing to see
Expresses a strong desire to meet a specific person.
I hope that he turns out to be
Hopes that the person she seeks meets her expectations.
Someone who'll watch over me
Desires someone who will protect and care for her.
I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood
Feels lost and vulnerable.
I know I could always be good
Believes she could behave well with the right guidance.
Someone who'll watch over me
Seeks someone to provide security and guardianship.
Although he may not be the man some
He might not fit conventional attractiveness, but he's special to her.
Girls think of as handsome
Contrasts conventional attractiveness with the person's value to her.
To my heart he carries the key
He holds the way to her heart.
Won't you tell him please to put on some speed
Asking for him to hurry, feeling a strong need.
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Asking for him to follow her lead, indicating her vulnerability and need for support.
Someone to watch over me
Desires someone to care for and protect her.
