I Remember You
Victor Silvester and His Orchestra Lyrics

The lyrics to Victor Silvester's song "I Promise You" describe the singer's unexpected fall into love and the overwhelming feelings of sentimentality that have followed. The first verse acknowledges the singer's previous belief that they would never fall in love, however, after hearing what they perceive to be the call of love, the singer experiences the feelings of love and affection which they had never anticipated. The second verse describes how the actions and words of the object of the singer's affection have brought them joy and excitement, and how their emotions are now completely consumed by love.

The final verse of the song includes a plea for the object of the singer's affection to reciprocate their love and treat them sweetly and gently. The use of the word "sentimental" in the title and lyrics of the song speaks to the deep emotional connection the singer feels towards their love interest. The word "sentimental" in this context suggests a heightened emotional state that borders on the emotional and the irrational, emphasizing the intense emotional attachment the singer feels.
