I DON'T WANT TO FORGET
Unveiling the Tapestry of Love: I Don't Want to Forget by Common Light
Lyrics
Let's focus on the ups
Emphasizing the positive aspects or good moments.
On the changes
Focusing on transitions or alterations.
Let's focus on the sacrifices a man will make for love
Highlighting the willingness to make sacrifices in the name of love.
Let's focus on the past
Directing attention towards the past.
And how that's all it is and will ever be
Acknowledging that the past remains solely as history and won't change.
I'm not the same man I used to be
Expressing personal growth or transformation.
I've got this whole present moment in front of me
Focusing on the present moment and its significance.
I don't want to forget
Expressing a desire or intent not to lose certain memories.
I don't want to forget the look on your face
Specifically not wanting to forget the expression on someone's face.
Hidden in your hands because of my shame
Suggesting a sense of shame leading to hiding behind hands.
Or the truth I buried under our name
Acknowledging buried truths within a relationship.
All the promises I made
Remembering commitments or assurances made.
Indebted to your flesh
Feeling obligated or indebted to someone on a physical level.
It will never be paid
Implying that the debt or obligation can't be repaid.
No, I don't want to forget
Reiterating the desire not to lose certain memories.
Let's ask all the questions with answers we don't want to know
Proposing to confront uncomfortable truths or queries.
Like, "Why do I always hate who I am when I'm alone?"
Pondering self-loathing tendencies when alone.
Let's get below the surface of what's comfortable
Encouraging a deeper exploration beyond comfort zones.
Try to take back the time wasted in denial
Expressing a desire to reclaim time wasted due to denial.
Maybe we can see what's underneath the struggle
Suggesting the potential for understanding the root cause of difficulties.
I don't want to forget
Reiterating the intent not to forget certain things.
I don't want to forget the look on your face
Specifically not wanting to forget a certain expression on someone's face.
Hidden in your hands because of my shame
Suggesting hiding due to personal shame or guilt.
Or the truth I buried under our name
Acknowledging buried truths within a relationship.
All the promises I made
Remembering commitments or assurances made.
Indebted to your flesh
Feeling obligated or indebted to someone on a physical level.
It will never be paid
Implying that the debt or obligation can't be repaid.
No, I don't want to forget
Reiterating the desire not to lose certain memories.
