You'll Think of Me
Keith Urban(凯斯 厄本) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With the moon shining bright as headlights on the interstate
I pulled the covers over my head and tried to catch some sleep
But thoughts of us kept keeping me awake
Ever since you found yourself in someone else's arms
I've been tryin' my best to get along
But that's okay
There's nothing left to say, but
Take your records, take your freedom
Take your memories I don't need 'em
Take your space and take your reasons
But you'll think of me
And take your cap and leave my sweater
'Cause we have nothing left to weather
In fact I'll feel a whole lot better
But you'll think of me, you'll think of me
I went out driving trying to clear my head
I tried to sweep out all the ruins that my emotions left
I guess I'm feeling just a little tired of this
And all the baggage that seems to still exist
It seems the only blessing I have left to my name
Is not knowing what we could have been
What we should have been
So
Take your records, take your freedom
Take your memories I don't need 'em
Take your space and take your reasons
But you'll think of me
And take your cap and leave my sweater
'Cause we have nothing left to weather
In fact I'll feel a whole lot better
But you'll think of me
Someday I'm gonna run across your mind
Don't worry, I'll be fine
I'm gonna be alright
While you're sleeping with your pride
Wishin' I could hold you tight
I'll be over you
And on with my life
So take your records, take your freedom
Take your memories I don't need 'em
And take your cap and leave my sweater
'Cause we have nothing left to weather
In fact I'll feel a whole lot better
But you'll think of me
So take your records, take your freedom
Take your memories I don't need 'em
Take your space and all your reasons
But you'll think of me
And take your cap and leave my sweater
'Cause we got nothing left to weather
In fact I'll feel a whole lot better
But you'll think of me, you'll think of me, yeah
And you're gonna think of me
Oh someday baby, someday
The lyrics of Keith Urban's song "You'll Think of Me" revolve around the emotions of a man who is trying to move on from a past relationship that has caused him heartache. The singer of the song is portrayed as someone who was deeply in love but has been deserted by his former lover, who has found someone else. Despite the pain, he tries to come to terms with the separation and make peace with the fact that the relationship is over. He tries to get on with his life despite the struggle of not being able to forget what they had.
The singer is shown to be deeply hurt and emotionally exhausted from trying to come to terms with the relationship's end. Keith Urban's use of imagery in the first verse highlights the singer's sadness, and how his thoughts are consumed by the memories of the past as he tries to sleep. The chorus of the song suggests that the singer is willing to give up everything, including the memories of his past relationship, but he knows that his former lover will always remember him.
The second verse of "You'll Think of Me" alludes to the singer's hopelessness despite his attempts to move on. He decides to go for a drive to clear his head and forget about the past relationship's ruins. He acknowledges that despite his efforts to forget, he is still carrying the baggage of the past relationship, and the only good thing about it is not knowing what could have been. The song's turning point is in the bridge, where the singer reveals his confidence in moving on from his past relationship, even though he knows his former lover will always remember him.

I woke up early this morning around four a.m.
I woke up suddenly at 4 in the morning
With the moon shining bright as headlights on the interstate
The moon was really bright, illuminating my surroundings
I pulled the covers over my head and tried to catch some sleep
I tried to go back to sleep by hiding under the blanket
But thoughts of us kept keeping me awake
I couldn't stop thinking about us, and it kept me from falling asleep
Ever since you found yourself in someone else's arms
Since you started seeing someone else
I've been tryin' my best to get along
I've been trying my best to move on
But that's okay
It's alright
There's nothing left to say, but
I don't have anything else to say except
Take your records, take your freedom
Take all your belongings, your freedom, and go
Take your memories I don't need 'em
Leave behind your memories, I don't want them
Take your space and take your reasons
Take your personal space and your reasons why you left
But you'll think of me
But you'll remember me
And take your cap and leave my sweater
Take your cap or hat, and leave my sweater behind
'Cause we have nothing left to weather
Because there's no point in trying to continue this relationship
In fact I'll feel a whole lot better
Actually, I'll feel much better
But you'll think of me, you'll think of me
But you will still remember me
I went out driving trying to clear my head
I drove around to try and ease my mind
I tried to sweep out all the ruins that my emotions left
I tried to get rid of all the negative feelings I have towards this situation
I guess I'm feeling just a little tired of this
I'm feeling a bit fed up with everything that's happened
And all the baggage that seems to still exist
All the emotional baggage we still have
It seems the only blessing I have left to my name
The only thing I have left is the fact I don't know what could have been
Is not knowing what we could have been
I am not aware of what could have happened between us
What we should have been
What our relationship could have been like
Someday I'm gonna run across your mind
Someday, you will think of me
Don't worry, I'll be fine
Don't worry about me, I'll be okay
I'm gonna be alright
I'll be fine
While you're sleeping with your pride
While you're feeling proud of your decision
Wishin' I could hold you tight
I wish I could still hold you
I'll be over you
I'll be done with this
And on with my life
I'll move on with my life
And you're gonna think of me
And you will remember me
Oh someday baby, someday
Someday in the future
