Someone to Watch over Me
Yearning Hearts: In Search of Love's Guardian
Lyrics
There's a saying old says that love is blind
Love is often seen as not seeing flaws or imperfections.
Still were often told, seek and ye shall find
It's commonly believed that if you search, you'll find what you're looking for.
So I'm going to seek a certain lad I've had in mind
The singer is determined to find a particular person.
Looking everywhere, haven't found him yet
Despite searching extensively, they haven't found the person yet.
Hes the big affair I cannot forget
This person holds great significance and is unforgettable.
Only man I ever think of with regret
The only person the singer regrets thinking about.
I'd like to add his initial to my monogram
The singer desires to symbolically unite with this person.
Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb?
Asking for guidance to find someone to provide care and protection.
There's a somebody I'm longing to see
A person the singer eagerly wants to meet.
I hope that he turns out to be
Hoping this person meets their expectations.
Someone who'll watch over me
Desiring someone to look after and protect them.
I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood
Feeling lost and vulnerable like a young sheep.
I know I could always be good
Confidence in being well-behaved with the right guidance.
Someone who'll watch over me
Seeking someone for protection and guidance.
Although he may not be the man some
Recognizing that this person might not match societal standards of attractiveness.
Girls think of as handsome
Others might not find this person physically attractive.
To my heart he carries the key
This person has a significant place in the singer's heart.
Won't you tell him please to put on some speed
Urging this person to hurry and come to the singer's aid.
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Requesting this person to follow the singer's guidance.
Someone to watch over me
Expressing a strong need for someone to protect and care for them.
