Heart Won't Forget
MATOMA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It was you and me
Girl on top of girl
Us against the world
We were caught between
Heaven and the earth
Us against the world

And we were dancing in summer rain
I knew we would end in pain
Wishing I could keep you
Thought we knew everything
Now you're just a memory
But baby I still see you

By the oceanside
With your hand in mine
My heart won't forget
I recall your laugh
Caught in photographs
My heart won't forget
My heart won't forget
My heart won't forget

When the sky was pink
Sun was gonna set
Hope you don't forget
When you turned to me
Looked at me and said
"Hope you don't forget"

And we were dancing in summer rain
I knew we would end in pain
Wishing I could keep you
Thought we knew everything
Now you're just a memory
But baby I still see you

By the oceanside
With your hand in mine
My heart won't forget
I recall your laugh
Caught in photographs
My heart won't forget
My heart won't forget
My heart won't forget

It's you and me holdin' on to summer dreams
And I don't wanna let you through
It's you and me holdin' on to summer dreams
And I don't wanna let you through

Under summer sun
I remember love
My heart won't forget
My heart won't forget




My heart won't forget
My heart won't forget

Overall Meaning

MATOMA's song "Heart Won't Forget" is a heart-wrenching love song with a bittersweet feeling throughout. The lyrics are about a past relationship that ended in pain and how the memories of the relationship are still very present, almost haunting. The first verse talks about the two lovers being together, against the world, but eventually realizing that the relationship was bound to end in pain. Despite that, the memory of it all is still alive and well, and the feelings from it never seem to go away. The chorus touches on the memories of the relationship and the longing for the love that was shared. The mention of the oceanside highlights how they were in the moment, just lost in each other's company, and how those moments were tucked away into their memories.


The second verse highlights another moment in the relationship, where they were together and she looked at him and told him to never forget her. This sets the tone for the rest of the lyrics, as he can't forget her and feels this persistent feeling in his heart. The repetition of "my heart won't forget" throughout the chorus only solidifies that feeling. The third and final verse touches on a sense of hopelessness for the singer as they cling onto a relationship that they know is gone.


Overall, this song does an excellent job of capturing the pain of a past love while highlighting the power of memories and the resilient nature of the heart.
