Dear You
Enduring Love: A Tale of Hope, Loss, and Devotion
Lyrics
Dear you, these two months can’t go by fast enough
Expressing impatience for the next two months to pass quickly, anticipating hearing their name and being told they are missed.
Can’t wait to hear you say my name, and tell me that you miss me
Anticipation of the joy in hearing the other person express affection and longing, reciprocating with mutual feelings.
I’ll say me too, hold you close
Expressing a desire to be close, promising not to disappear, and being willing to follow the other person.
And promise that you never will disappear too, run away
Pledging not to run away and vowing to go with the person if they decide to leave.
And if you decide to leave, I’ll go with you
Reiterating the commitment to follow the person if they choose to leave, emphasizing loyalty.
Dear you, I missed my flight, I’ll try and catch the next one, so I’ll see you two weeks late
Apologizing for missing a flight and expressing excitement to see the person, even if delayed by two weeks.
I’m shaking with excitement
Conveying intense excitement and anticipation.
You appear to have a plan on what we’re gonna do, but when I see you, rest assured, this plan you have, I’ll gladly follow
Acknowledging the other person's plan, expressing a willingness to follow it when they meet.
Through and through
Reiterating commitment and loyalty to follow the other person through any challenges.
The motions may be daunting, but they’re not near as alarming as the hope
Comparing the challenges in the relationship to the hope they share, emphasizing that hope is more significant.
We knew through the letters that we write, I’ll protect the future I have made with you
Committing to protect the future built through exchanged letters.
Dear you, I’m writing just to make sure you’re alright
Checking in on the other person's well-being and expressing concern.
I’m watching the news, just last night a plane went down in Cali.
Sharing news of a plane crash, wondering if it affected the person, and expressing worry.
Did it take you from my grasp? I waited at the airport, didn’t see you
Recalling waiting at the airport, not seeing the person, and expressing the hope to hear back soon.
Hopefully I’ll hear back from you soon I’ll follow
Reiterating the commitment to follow through any situation.
Through and through
Emphasizing that challenges are not as alarming as the shared hope.
The motions may be daunting, but they’re not near as alarming as the hope we knew
Repeating the commitment to protect the future built through letters.
Through the letters that we write, I’ll protect the future I have made with you
Reiterating the commitment to protect the future built through exchanged letters.
Dear you, never got that letter in the mail
Expressing disappointment about not receiving a letter in the mail.
Wish I could see you one last time
Wishing for one last meeting and promising not to forget the person.
I promise that I never will forget you, or that soul lost in that damning moment
Expressing a deep connection and urging the other person to pay attention to their emotional plea.
Please take heed to me crying out, with everything I have, I’ll follow
Pledging to follow through with everything they have.
Through and through
Reiterating the commitment to follow through any challenges.
The motions may be daunting, but they’re not nearly as haunting as the hope we knew
Comparing the challenges to the hope they share, emphasizing that hope is more haunting.
Through the letters that we wrote, I’ll protect the future I had made with you
Repeating the commitment to protect the future built through exchanged letters.
