Remember
Memories Unforgotten: Love's Promise and the Painful Price
Lyrics
One little kiss, a moment of bliss, then hours of deep regret
Expressing the fleeting joy of a kiss followed by prolonged regret.
One little smile, and after a while, a longing to forget
A smile leads to a desire to forget, suggesting the transience of happiness.
One little heartache left as a token
A heartache remains as a reminder or keepsake of the emotional pain.
One little plaything carelessly broken
Refers to a relationship or love as a plaything that was broken casually.
Remember the night
Introducing a reflective tone, prompting a recollection of a specific night.
The night you said, "I love you"
Recalling a moment when the words "I love you" were spoken.
Remember?
An urging to remember that particular night.
Remember you vowed
Recollection of a vow made by the speaker.
By all the stars above you
The commitment is emphasized by invoking celestial imagery.
Remember?
A repetition emphasizing the importance of remembering.
Remember we found a lonely spot
Recalling a shared intimate moment in a secluded place.
And after I learned to care a lot
After developing feelings, indicating a shift in the emotional dynamic.
You promised that you'd forget me not
A promise to be unforgettable, adding a layer of commitment.
But you forgot
Highlighting a failure to keep the promise to remember.
To remember
An ironic twist, expressing the forgetfulness mentioned earlier.
Into my dreams you wandered it seems, and then there came a day
Narrating a dreamlike sequence where the beloved once reciprocated love.
You loved me too, my dreams had come true, and all the world was
The dream turns real, with happiness symbolized by the month of May.
May
Highlighting the ephemeral nature of joy, as May turns to December.
But soon the Maytime turned to December
Indicating the fading of warmth and love over time.
You had forgotten, do you remember?
Pointing out the forgotten promises, posing the question of remembrance.
