Someone To Watch Over Me
Longing Hearts and Lost Lambs: Seeking Love's Guardian
Lyrics
There's a saying old says that love is blind
Love is often perceived to be oblivious to faults or imperfections.
Still were often told, seek and ye shall find
Encouragement to actively search for love or one's desired partner.
So I'm going to seek a certain lad I've had in mind
Expresses the intent to search for a specific person.
Looking everywhere, haven't found him yet
Despite searching extensively, the person hasn't been found yet.
Hes the big affair I cannot forget
Refers to an unforgettable significant relationship.
Only man I ever think of with regret
Emphasizes the unique impact and lingering thoughts about this person.
I'd like to add his initial to my monogram
Desire to incorporate the person's identity into their own.
Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb?
Seeking guidance or protection from someone trustworthy.
There's a somebody I'm longing to see
Expresses strong desire to meet a particular individual.
I hope that he turns out to be
Hopes that the sought-after person meets expectations.
Someone who'll watch over me
Desire for someone who will take care and protect the speaker.
I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood
Feeling lost and vulnerable, needing guidance.
I know I could always be good
Confidence in being well-behaved under guidance.
Someone who'll watch over me
Seeking someone who will provide security and protection.
Although he may not be the man some
Recognition that the sought-after person may not fit conventional attractiveness standards.
Girls think of as handsome
Highlighting that beauty is subjective and not solely based on looks.
To my heart he carries the key
Symbolic reference to the person holding importance to the speaker's heart.
Won't you tell him please to put on some speed
Urging the person to hurry or act swiftly.
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Asking for support and guidance from the sought-after individual.
Someone to watch over me
Desire for someone to protect and watch over the speaker.
