Smith Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll get along
Forget about me
Just be happy my love
Let's say that our little show is over
And so the story ends
Why not call it a day the sensible way
Look out for yourself
That should be the rule
Give your heart and your love
To whomever you love
Darlin' don't be a fool
Why do we cling to this old faded thing
That used to be
So if you can forget
Then don't worry 'bout me
Why should we cling to some old faded thing
That used to be
So if you can forget
Then you don't worry 'bout me
The lyrics of Smith's song "Don't Worry" are a message to a former lover that it's time to move on and let go of the past. The song starts with the message "Don't worry 'bout me, I'll get along" indicating that the person who is leaving doesn't want their partner to be concerned about their well-being. The next line continues the message of leaving the past behind, "Forget about me, just be happy my love." The message is clear in that the person singing the song is willing to let go of the relationship and wants their ex-partner to do the same.
The singer suggests that the two should acknowledge that their relationship is over and should end it "the sensible way" and still be friends. The chorus of the song reiterates the need to move on, "Why do we cling to some old faded thing, that used to be? So if you can forget, then you don't worry 'bout me." The singer is expressing that if their partner can let go of the past, then the singer will be okay and move on.
Overall, the song is about the transition from love to friendship and the importance of letting go of old relationships without any hard feelings.
