Remind Me
Love's Journey Across Miles: Casey Conroy's 'Remind Me' Tale
Lyrics
Pick me up for dinner ‘cuz you have the night off
Invitation to dinner because the person has free time
Drive 500 miles telling me that you’re gonna miss me when you’re gone
Driving a long distance, expressing the anticipation of missing the person
That you’ll kiss me through the phone
Expressing a desire to connect intimately despite the physical distance
A month later and I’m on a plane
Traveling a significant distance after a month to express missing the person
Half way round the world just to tell you that I really did miss you while you’ve gone
Reiterating the depth of missing someone
Not enough you through the phone
Expressing that virtual connection isn’t enough
I know someday I might forget all about
Acknowledging the potential to forget these moments in the future
All these moments that I’m singing about but I hope you know
Expressing the effort to immortalize these moments through writing
I’m trying hard to sit and write it all down
Putting effort into documenting moments for future reflection
So when it’s bad you can read it out loud and tell me so
Desiring reassurance during tough times
Some nights I’ll be stupid
Admitting moments of folly or mistakes
I’ll be afraid we were never really made to stay
Feeling uncertain about the relationship's longevity
Remind me
Asking for reminders during moments of doubt
Some nights I’ll be crazy
Anticipating moments of irrationality
I’ve made a mistake, please don’t leave me here to think it that way
Fearing the consequences of a mistake
Remind me
Requesting reminders during periods of uncertainty
Spent all night finding a movie to see
Trying to find common ground despite differences in preferences
As soon as it starts, you’re falling asleep
Noticing the partner falling asleep during shared activities
I hold you as you go, watch you fall in deeper into me
Embracing the partner's vulnerability and deepening connection
I know someday I might forget all about
Acknowledging the potential to forget these moments in the future
All these moments that I’m singing about but I hope you know
Expressing the effort to immortalize these moments through writing
I’m trying hard to sit and write it all down
Putting effort into documenting moments for future reflection
So when it’s bad you can read it out loud and tell me so
Desiring reassurance during tough times
Some nights I’ll be stupid
Admitting moments of folly or mistakes
I’ll be afraid we were never really made to stay
Feeling uncertain about the relationship's longevity
Remind me
Asking for reminders during moments of doubt
Some nights I’ll be crazy
Anticipating moments of irrationality
I’ve made a mistake, please don’t leave me here to think it that way
Fearing the consequences of a mistake
Remind me
Requesting reminders during periods of uncertainty
Some nights I’ll be stupid, get all down on my knees, think it really wasn’t meant to be
Expressing extreme doubts and seeking reminders in difficult times
Remind me
Asking for reminders during moments of intense anxiety
Some nights I’ll be crazy, get all worried about, all the things I think I’m living without
Expressing worries about missing essential aspects of life
Remind me
Requesting reminders to avoid forgetting important things
I always want you to remind me baby
Expressing a consistent desire for reminders from the partner
