Someone To Watch Over Me
Dreaming of Love's Arrival: Someone To Watch Over Me
Lyrics
Someday he'll come along
Someday, a special person will enter my life
The man I love
This person will be the one I love
And he'll be big and strong
He will possess physical strength and stature
The man I love
Reiterating the qualities of the man she loves
And when he comes my way
When he approaches, she will strive to make him stay
I'll do my best to make him stay
Expressing her commitment to keeping him in her life
He'll look at me and smile
When he looks at her and smiles, she will comprehend his feelings
I'll understand
She will understand him without the need for words
Then in a little while
After a short time, he will take her hand
He'll take my hand
Describing a physical connection between them
And though it seems absurd
Acknowledging the seeming irrationality of their unspoken connection
I know we both won't say a word
Confident that both of them will understand each other without verbal communication
Maybe I shall meet him Sunday
Anticipating the possibility of meeting him on a Sunday
Maybe Monday, maybe not
Considering various days for their potential meeting
Still I'm sure to meet him one day
Despite uncertainties, she is sure they will meet someday
Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day
Expressing hope for good news on a Tuesday
He'll build a little home
Imagining a shared home for both of them
That's meant for two
Describing the intimate space meant for their relationship
From which I'll never roam
She envisions a home where she will always belong
Who would, would you
Questioning if anyone would want to leave such a home
And so all else above
Above all else, she dreams of the man she loves
I'm dreaming of the man I love
Summarizing her overarching dream and desire
