Keep Me In Mind
Zac Brown Band Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How come all the pretty girls like you are taken baby
I've been looking for someone like you to save me
Life's too easy to be so damn complicated
Take your time and I'll be waitin'
Keep me in mind
Keep me in mind
And I pray someday that you will love me only
I think about you some days
And the way I would lay and waste a day after day with you
We always go our separate ways
But no one can love you baby the way I do
Keep me in mind
Somewhere down the road you might get lonely
Keep me in mind
And I pray someday that you will love me only
Well the world can be real tough
Find shelter in me
If there's no-one else to love
Keep me in mind
If ever you wanted me
I'll be your man
I'd be a fool to let you go with someone else
Whatever you want from me
I'll be your man
I'd give it all up just to have you for myself
Keep me in mind
Somewhere down the road you might get lonely
Keep me in mind
And I pray someday that you will love me only
Well the world can be real tough
Why don't you hold on to me
When there's no one else to love
Keep me in mind (Keep me in mind)
And I'll hold you darling (Keep me in mind)
I'll be your man (Keep me in mind)
I'll hold you darling (Keep me in mind)
C'mon little mama
Put it on me
The lyrics to Zac Brown Band's Keep Me In Mind appear to be about unrequited love. The singer of the song is expressing his feelings for a woman who is already taken, lamenting the fact that he hasn't found someone like her to "save" him. He urges her to keep him in mind, in case she ever gets lonely in the future. The chorus repeats this plea, with the singer hoping that someday she will love him only. The song continues in this vein, with the singer offering himself as a shelter to the woman in a tough world, promising to be her man and give up everything to be with her, if only she would choose him.
The song paints a picture of a man who is hopelessly in love with a woman who is out of his reach, and who can only hope that someday she will come around. The lyrics are poignant and heartfelt, and will strike a chord with anyone who has ever loved someone who didn't love them back.

Sounds no different than what they sound like live....what a amazing group, i love them! And the fact that they love nothing more than just being able to play music makes them even harder not to love
