Keep Me in Mind
Cape Cub Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The rolling ocean takes a breath
From the shoreline, I feel blessed
Take me northbound, back to home
Where I know
I see our footprints in the sand
I feel hairs raise on the back of my hand
Take me northbound, back to home
Where I know
You feel like you're alone
And you feel like something's wrong
I feel like I won't know, I won't know
So, keep me in mind
Keep me in mind

The concrete skyline comes along
I hold your picture, and now I'm gone
Take me northbound, back to home
Where I know
And you feel like you're alone
You feel like something's wrong
I feel like I won't know, I won't know
'Til I'm alone
So, keep me in mind
Keep me in mind
What I fear is something I don't know
What I fear is what they can't control
Keep me in mind

Keep me in mind





Keep me in mind
Keep me in mind

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Cape Cub's song Keep Me in Mind paint a picture of a longing for home and the comfort that comes with it. The song begins with the image of the calming sea, as the singer takes a moment to appreciate the beauty around them. As they head northbound towards their home, they reminisce about the footprints left in the sand and the sense of security that comes with being in a familiar place. The repetition of the phrase "where I know" emphasizes the comfort of a familiar environment in contrast to the uncertainty and discomfort of the outside world.


The chorus offers a message of reliance and the need for human connection. The lines "You feel like you're alone / And you feel like something's wrong" evoke a feeling of isolation and anxiety, which is counteracted by the plea to "keep me in mind." The song seems to be a reminder to hold onto the people who provide a sense of comfort and familiarity, even when faced with the unknown.


Overall, Keep Me in Mind is an introspective and reflective song that explores the themes of longing, connection, and the importance of home and familiarity.
