I Promise
Embracing Love Amidst Uncertainty: Jeremy Warmsley's 'I Promise' Meaning
Lyrics
Rest your head on my shoulder
Offering comfort and support, providing a place of solace and security
When the soldiers come for us
Referring to facing challenges or threats together
I'll lay my hand on your belly, I promise
Promising protection and care, particularly directed at a loved one
Kiss me once to forgive me
A request for forgiveness through a gesture of affection
Curl your toes around my thumb
Embracing intimacy and connection
I'll hide the money behind the wall, I promise
Pledging to safeguard resources or valuables
You are the dream that I forgot
Recognizing a significant but forgotten aspiration or desire
I will hold you in the night
Commitment to providing support and care during vulnerable times
You are the dream that I forgot
Reiterating the importance of a neglected or unrealized aspiration
The dream that I forgot to have
Expressing regret or sadness over a missed or forgotten dream
I will hold you in the night
Reaffirming the dedication to offering comfort and protection
You are the dream that I forgot
Revisiting the idea of a forgotten dream or ambition
The dream the dream
Emphasizing the recurring nature of this overlooked dream
The dream I forgot to have
Highlighting the neglect or absence of a specific dream
I will hold you in the night, I promise
Reassuring support and presence during difficult times
Rest your head on my shoulder
Repeating the offer of comfort and security
When the soldiers come for us
Restating the idea of facing challenges or threats together
I'll lay my hand on your belly, I promise
Reaffirming the promise of protection and care, specifically directed at a loved one
I promise
Finalizing and reinforcing the commitment made throughout the song
