Don't Worry 'Bout Me
Letting Go: Embracing Change in Love
Lyrics
Don't worry 'bout me
Advice not to concern oneself about the speaker
I'll get along
Assurance that the speaker will manage
Forget about me
Suggesting the listener to stop thinking about the speaker
Just be happy my love
Encouragement for the listener to be happy
Let's say that our little show is over
Implies the end of a relationship or situation
And so the story ends
Declaring the conclusion of a story or event
Why not call it a day the sensible way
Suggesting a sensible end to the situation
And still be friends
Desire to maintain friendship despite the end
Look out for yourself
Encouragement for the listener to prioritize themselves
That should be the rule
Suggesting self-preservation as important
Give your heart and your love
Encouragement to give love to someone else
To whomever you love
Emphasizing the freedom to love whoever one desires
Darlin' don't be a fool
Advising against being foolish in love
Why do we cling to this old faded thing
Questioning why people hold on to something that has faded
That used to be
Reflecting on something that has lost its vibrancy
So if you can forget
Suggesting forgetting the past for moving forward
Then don't worry 'bout me
Reiterating advice not to worry about the speaker
Why should we cling to some old faded thing
Repetition of questioning the attachment to something faded
That used to be
Repetition of reflecting on something that has lost its essence
So if you can forget
Reiteration of advice to forget the past
Then you don't worry 'bout me
Reiterating the advice not to worry about the speaker
