Lyrics

There's a saying old says that love is blind

Love is often described as blind, unable to see flaws.

Still were often told "seek and you shall find"

Encouragement to seek love actively.

So I'm going to seek a certain girl I've had in mind

The singer is determined to find a specific girl.

Looking everywhere haven't found her yet

Despite searching extensively, the girl hasn’t been found.


She's the big affair I cannot forget

The girl is an unforgettable, significant person.

Only girl I ever think of with regret

Regrets exist regarding this particular girl.

I'd like to add her initial to my monogram

Desire to personalize things with her initials.

Tell me where is the shepherdess for this lost lamb?

Seeking guidance to find this elusive girl.


There's a somebody I'm longing to see

Expressing a strong desire to meet someone.

I hope that she turns out to be

Hoping that the person is who the singer desires.

Someone who'll watch over me

Wanting someone to protect and care for the singer.


I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood

Feeling lost and vulnerable, needing guidance.

I know I could always be good

Willingness to be good for the person who cares for them.

To one who'll watch over me

Desiring someone to protect and watch over the singer.

Although I may not be the man some girls think of as handsome

Acknowledging one's appearance may not meet societal standards.


To her heart I carry the key

The singer holds the key to the girl's heart.

Won't you tell her please to put on some speed, follow my lead

Urging someone to help the girl hasten to the singer.

Oh, how I need someone who'll watch over me

Expressing a deep need for someone to protect and care for them.


There's a somebody I'm longing to see

Reiterating the longing to meet the desired person.

I hope that she turns out to be

Hoping the person becomes the protector the singer needs.

Someone to watch over me

Yearning for someone to watch over and care for them.


I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood

Feeling lost and needing guidance.

I know I could always be good

Willingness to be good for the protector.

To one who'll watch over me

Desiring someone to watch over and care for them.


Although I may not be the man some girls think of as handsome

Acknowledging that one might not fit societal beauty standards.

To her heart I carry the key

Having the ability to access the girl's heart.

Won't you tell her please to put on some speed, follow my lead

Urging someone to help the girl come to the singer.

Oh, how I need someone to watch over me

Expressing a strong need for someone to watch over them.
