Forevermore
Katie Herzig Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I could be your fairy tale
And you could come and save me
But that is not the end
I will wear a white dress
You will paint a sunset
Life will be a love fest
Say say, oh playmate
Come out and play with me
And bring your dollies three
Climb up my apple tree
Slide down my rainbow
Into my cellar door
And we'll be jolly friends
Forever more
But the world can spin so madly
And love can hurt so badly
And stories end so sadly
But this is not the end
You still have my heartache
I still have your sweater
Things they will get better
Oh, but not today
Say say oh playmate
I cannot play with you
My dolly's got the flue
Boo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo
Ain't got no rainbow
Ain't got no cellar door
But we'll be jolly friends
Forever more
Say say, oh playmate
Come out and play with me
And bring your dollies three
Climb up my apple tree
Slide down my rainbow
Into my cellar door
And we'll be jolly friends
Forever more
The first verse of Katie Herzig's song "Forevermore" describes a dreamlike perfect love story, with the singer envisioning a partner who could be her white knight and save her. She imagines herself wearing a white dress and him painting a sunset, and together, they will have a life full of love and joy. However, the second verse brings a dose of reality to the story, where the singer acknowledges that the world can spin madly, love can hurt, and stories can end sadly. But even though things might not be perfect, the love they share is not over, and they will get through it together.
The chorus involves a childhood chant, "Say, say, oh playmate", and the song switches between different versions of the chant to create a sense of nostalgia and a return to a more innocent time. The final verse brings back the reality of the present, with the singer acknowledging that things might not be as perfect as they once imagined, but they will still be friends forever.
Overall, the song's message seems to be a reminder that life can be unpredictable, and things won't always go as planned. However, the love and friendship you share with someone can endure through the ups and downs, even if it's not a fairytale ending.

Love can be painful and heartbreaking

Some stories don't have a happy ending

Say say oh playmate
Let's continue to be friends and support each other
I cannot play with you
I am going through difficult times and can't engage right now
My dolly's got the flue
I am dealing with sickness and troubles
Boo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo
I am sad and upset about my situation
Ain't got no rainbow
I am not experiencing any joy or happiness right now
Ain't got no cellar door
I am feeling isolated and trapped
But we'll be jolly friends
Even though I am struggling, we will still be friends
Forever more
Our friendship will endure through all challenges
