Forget Me Not
Eternal Promises in 'Forget Me Not' by The Civil Wars
Lyrics
I've been awaiting for you
Expressing anticipation for someone's arrival
And you've been awaiting for me
Highlighting mutual anticipation between both individuals
Tell me that you'll always be true
Seeking reassurance of fidelity and honesty
And you'll be the only one for me
Desiring exclusivity in the relationship
Forget me not my dear, my darling
Requesting not to be forgotten or overlooked
Forget me not my love
Reiterating the plea to remember and not forget
I just wanna hold your hand
Expressing a desire for physical closeness and connection
Hang on every word you say
Desiring to pay close attention and value the partner's words
Let's write a song for us
Proposing the idea of creating something meaningful together
And sing it til we're old and grey
Wishing to share a lasting commitment and continue the relationship into old age
Forget me not my dear, my darling
Repetition of the plea not to be forgotten or overlooked
Forget me not my love
Reiteration of the request to remember and not forget
I'm coming home real soon
Expressing an imminent return or reunion
Please leave a light on for me
Requesting a symbolic gesture to signify waiting and welcoming back
Tell me that you'll always be true
Repeating the need for fidelity and honesty in the relationship
And you'll be the only one for me
Reiterating the desire for exclusivity in the relationship
Yes, you'll be the only one for me
Emphasizing the sole importance of the partner
