Adele: Don't You Remember Meaning


Don't You Remember Lyrics

When will I see you again
You left with no goodbye
Not a single a word was said
No final kiss to seal any sins
I had no idea in the state we were in

I know I have a fickle heart
And a bitterness and a wandering eye and a heaviness in my...

    Has anyone here seen Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind? I know that the songs on this album were inspired by a break up of hers, so I doubt it's based on the movie, but it fits all too well to just be a coincidence.

    I think this breakup took her by suprise. She wasnt expecting him to be gone and he didnt even say goodbye when he left. She was left wondering what actually went wrong, the more she does the more confused she gets because only he can answer that particular question. She acknowledges that she's not perfect (I know I have a fickle heart/ and a bitterness/ and a wondering eye and a heaviness in my head) but hopes he can remember her and how much he loves/loved her and come back to her.

    If anyone knows about the 5 stages of grief theyl agree that the 5 stages are evident in the songs on the album 21. This song in particular is portraying Stage 3 of grief - Bargaining.

    This is my song.. this is what exactly happened to me and to my one & only great love.. Everything happened so fast, w/o any warning..All of a sudden, everything i thought would be forever was lost.. No second.. but still im hoping that someday, he will still give me and our relationship another chance..I hope.. He's my one and only..

    It means that she and her ex split but she wishes that they had ended on good terms, but they didn't.She had tried to give him space but it didn't work and all she wants is for him to remember why he loved her in the first place.

    I think this song is about people that always take things for granted in life. After the relationship gone, the emptiness feeling they can't deny. Especially for their first crush and soulmate destined.

    We promise that we will never forget some one, but few ever keep that promise. Beautiful song.

    E.

    I think that this song means that she really trusted her boyfriend to love her, but saw that he wasn't happy, so let him go. She hoped that her ex would relize her sacrifice for him, and come back to her.

    She said that the guy she was with had her head over heels and she was one of those girls that that got anxious when their boyfriend didn't text her back under ten seconds and she told herself, "I bet he doesn't even remember why he loved me."

    To me this song means she is asking the her ex why did he loved her in the first place if he was just going to break up with her in the end.

    he left her all alone, she wasn't aware of the situation, i am in exactly the same situation been crying for a month, you love them so much and just can't believe that it's so easy for them to just move on not even think of u at all but you can't help but wait for them to finally decide, while it makes u sound desperate you don't care you love him and will do anything for him back, but you don't hear anything

    Adele is missing someone she used to be close with. The relationship just ended without any warning. She is begging him to give her a second chance because they had so many memories.

    She doesn't want to be forgotten.

    It's about a couple who have split up and she wants him to love her again and doesn't understand why he stopped loving her.

    i think that in this song is about adele trying to get a boy that has left her to remember all the good times they had together so he will come back.
