I Will Remember You
Ed Sheeran Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In the way you'd want me to
But it's hard to come to terms right now
Sunset looked today
As if it knew you'd gone away
Now it's night, I hear the rain crash down
Oh, I'd cry, but this is more than just my pain
And it's time for me to call your son again
And say
She was the starlight in darkness
She was the first bloom in spring
An angel with a smile like electric light
All the time hid her wings
She was the birdsong in morning
But now everything here has changed
All the world's less beautiful
Since you've been away
I will remember you
With white wine by the barbecue
On New York at the birthday do, downtown
All that comes to mind
When I think about the time
Is a memory of laughin' out loud
Oh, I wish that I could take the pain away
And just talk to him in person
But it's time for me to call your son again
And say
She was the starlight in darkness
She was the first bloom in spring
An angel with a smile like electric light
All the time hid her wings
She was the birdsong in morning
But now everything here has changed
All the world's less beautiful
Since you've been away
This doesn't make sense
I wish I could change it, but
I can't do anything
My heart is racin'
And my soul is achin', lover
Love
She was the starlight in darkness
She was the first bloom in spring
An angel with a smile like electric light
All the time hid her wings
She was the birdsong in morning
But now everything here has changed
All the world's less beautiful
Since you've been away
The world's less beautiful
Since you've been away
In the song "I Will Remember You" by Ed Sheeran, the lyrics reflect on the loss of someone significant to the singer. The opening lines convey the difficulty in accepting the reality of their absence. The sunset is described as if it knew the person had passed away, and now in the darkness of night, the sound of rain crashing down symbolizes the sorrow and emotional storm the singer feels.
The following verses express the deep impact the person had on the singer's life. They were a source of light, joy, and beauty in a dark and changed world. The analogy of a starlight in darkness and the first bloom in spring highlights their importance and the void their absence has left behind. The mention of the person's hidden wings emphasizes their angelic and ethereal nature.
The lyrics then shift to specific memories of the person. The mention of white wine by the barbecue, the birthday celebration in downtown New York, and the memory of laughing out loud all serve as nostalgic moments that bring both joy and pain. The singer expresses a desire to alleviate the pain felt by the person's loved ones, particularly their son. However, despite this longing, the singer feels limited in their ability to offer comfort and can only reach out to the son once again.
As the song progresses, the singer acknowledges the frustration and confusion caused by the loss. The repetition of "This doesn't make sense" reflects their struggles to comprehend and accept the reality. The line "My heart is racin' and my soul is achin', lover" encapsulates the emotional turmoil experienced as a result of the loss.
The final repetition of the chorus emphasizes the lasting impact the person had on the singer's world. The phrase "all the world's less beautiful since you've been away" underscores the profound emptiness and loss the singer continues to feel. Overall, the lyrics convey the deep sense of grief and remembrance for someone dearly loved and missed, encapsulating the complex emotions associated with loss.

I will remember you
I will hold your memory close and cherish it
In the way you'd want me to
I will remember you according to your desires
But it's hard to come to terms right now
Accepting your absence is currently difficult for me
Sunset looked today
The setting sun seemed aware
As if it knew you'd gone away
As if it sensed your departure
Now it's night, I hear the rain crash down
Now it's nighttime, and I hear the heavy rain pouring
Oh, I'd cry, but this is more than just my pain
I would shed tears, but the sadness extends beyond myself
Oh, I could be a shoulder, not a burden
I can provide support, not be a source of burden
And it's time for me to call your son again
And it's time for me to reach out to your son once more
And say
And express
She was the starlight in darkness
She brought light and hope into the darkest moments
She was the first bloom in spring
She represented new beginnings and fresh growth
An angel with a smile like electric light
A heavenly being with a radiant and vibrant smile
All the time hid her wings
Although she possessed wings, they remained unseen
She was the birdsong in morning
She brought joy and melody to the mornings
But now everything here has changed
But now, everything has transformed in her absence
All the world's less beautiful
The beauty of the world has diminished
Since you've been away
Since you departed
I will remember you
I will hold your memory close and cherish it
With white wine by the barbecue
With a glass of white wine during a barbecue gathering
On New York at the birthday do, downtown
In New York City, celebrating a birthday downtown
All that comes to mind
All that crosses my thoughts
When I think about the time
When I reminisce about the past
Is a memory of laughin' out loud
The only vivid memory is that of joyful and boisterous laughter
Oh, I wish that I could take the pain away
I desperately desire to alleviate the pain
And just talk to him in person
And have a personal conversation with him
But it's time for me to call your son again
But it's time for me to reach out to your son once more
And say
And express
This doesn't make sense
This situation is incomprehensible
I wish I could change it, but
I desire to alter it, but
I can't do anything
I am unable to do anything about it
My heart is racin'
My heart is beating rapidly
And my soul is achin', lover
And I feel intense pain in my soul, my beloved
Love
Love
She was the starlight in darkness
She brought light and hope into the darkest moments
She was the first bloom in spring
She represented new beginnings and fresh growth
An angel with a smile like electric light
A heavenly being with a radiant and vibrant smile
All the time hid her wings
Although she possessed wings, they remained unseen
She was the birdsong in morning
She brought joy and melody to the mornings
But now everything here has changed
But now, everything has transformed in her absence
All the world's less beautiful
The beauty of the world has diminished
Since you've been away
Since you departed
The world's less beautiful
The world has become less beautiful
Since you've been away
Since you departed

As if it knew you'd gone away
Now it's night, I hear the rain crash down

Oh, I'd cry, but this is more than just my pain
Oh, I could be a shoulder, not a burden
And it's time for me to call your son again
And say

She was the starlight in darkness
She was the first bloom in spring
An angel with a smile like electric light
All the time hit her wings
She was the birdsong in morning
But now everything here has changed
All the world's less beautiful
Since you've been away
[Verse 2]
I will remember you
With white whine by the barbecue
On New York at the birthday doo, downtown
All that comes to mind
When I think about the time
Is a memory of laughing out loud
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I wish, that I could take the pain away
And just talk to him in person
But it's time for me to call your son again
And say

This doesn't make sense
I wish I could change it, but
I can't do anything
My heart is racing
And my soul is aching, lover

She was the starlight in darkness

An angel with a smile like electric light
All the time hit her wings
She was the birdsong in morning
But now everything here has changed
All the world's less beautiful
Since you've been away

But it's hard to come to terms right now
Sunset looked today as if it knew you'd gone away
Now it's night, I hear the rain crash down
Oh, I'd cry, but this is more than just my pain
Oh, I should be a shoulder, not a burden
And it's time for me to call your son again
And say
She was the starlight in darkness
She was the first bloom in spring
An angel with a smile like electric light
All the time hid her wings
She was the birdsong in morning
But now everything here has changed
All the world's less beautiful

This doesn't make sense
I wish I could change it, but I can't do anything
My heart is racing
And my soul is aching, lover
Well, she was the starlight in darkness
She was the first bloom in spring
An angel with a smile like electric light
All the time hid her wings
She was the birdsong in morning
But now everything here has changed
All the world's less beautiful
Since you've been away
The world's less beautiful
Since you've been away
