Someone to Watch over Me
Yearning Heart's Quest: In Search of Love's Guardian
Lyrics
There's a saying old says that love is blind
Love is often considered blind, a common saying.
Still were often told, seek and ye shall find
Despite being told to seek, the person hasn't found love yet.
So I'm going to seek a certain lad I've had in mind
Expressing the intent to search for a specific person.
Looking everywhere, haven't found him yet
Despite searching everywhere, the person hasn't found the desired individual.
Hes the big affair I cannot forget
The person cannot forget a significant past relationship.
Only man I ever think of with regret
Expressing regret about thinking only of a particular man.
I'd like to add his initial to my monogram
Desire to incorporate the man's initial into personal symbolism.
Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb?
Asking for guidance to find the right person, comparing oneself to a lost lamb.
There's a somebody I'm longing to see
Expressing a strong desire to see a specific person.
I hope that he turns out to be
Expressing hope that the person will be desirable.
Someone who'll watch over me
Seeking someone to watch over and protect the speaker.
I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood
Describing oneself as a lost lamb in need of guidance.
I know I could always be good
Confident in the ability to be good under the watchful eye of the right person.
Someone who'll watch over me
Reiterating the desire for someone to watch over the speaker.
Although he may not be the man some
Even if not conventionally handsome, the person holds the key to the speaker's heart.
Girls think of as handsome
Highlighting that the person's attractiveness may not be universal.
To my heart he carries the key
The person has a significant role in the speaker's heart.
Won't you tell him please to put on some speed
Requesting the person to hasten and follow the speaker.
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Asking for support and guidance, emphasizing the need for someone to lead.
Someone to watch over me
Reiterating the desire for someone to watch over and protect the speaker.
