Someone to Watch Over Me
Longing for Love: The Search for a Guardian Heart
Lyrics
There's a saying old says that love is blind
Love is often seen as not seeing faults or imperfections.
Still were often told, seek and ye shall find
Encourages actively seeking love to find it.
So I'm going to seek a certain lad I've had in mind
Expresses intent to find a particular person.
Looking everywhere, haven't found him yet
Searching everywhere but not yet successful.
Hes the big affair I cannot forget
Refers to someone significant, unforgettable.
Only man I ever think of with regret
Regrets not being with this person.
I'd like to add his initial to my monogram
Desires to symbolically connect with him.
Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb?
Asks where the person she longs for is.
There's a somebody I'm longing to see
Expresses a strong desire to meet someone.
I hope that he turns out to be
Hopes that this person is what she expects.
Someone who'll watch over me
Desires someone who will protect and care for her.
I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood
Feels lost and vulnerable.
I know I could always be good
Believes she can be good with guidance.
Someone who'll watch over me
Desires protection and care from someone.
Although he may not be the man some
Recognizes he might not fit society's ideal.
Girls think of as handsome
Others may not see him as conventionally attractive.
To my heart he carries the key
But he holds the deepest connection to her heart.
Won't you tell him please to put on some speed
Urges the person to hasten to her.
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Asks for support and guidance.
Someone to watch over me
Longs for someone to protect and care for her.
