I'll Be Seeing You

Share:

I'll be seeing you
In all the old, familiar places
That this heart of mine embraces
All day through

In that small cafe
The park across the way
The children's carousel

The chestnut tree
The wishing well

I'll be seeing you
In every lovely, summer's day
And everything that's bright and gay
I'll always think of you that way
I'll find you in the morning sun
And when the night is new

I'll be looking at the moon
But I'll be seeing you

The song I'll Be Seeing You is a classic love song that is full of nostalgia and longing. It was written in 1938 by Irving Kahal and Sammy Fain, and became very popular during the Second World War, providing a bittersweet soundtrack for the soldiers and their loved ones. The song was then recorded by many artists, but it was made famous by Frank Sinatra & Tommy Dorsey's rendition.

The lyrics themselves speak of the desire to see someone who is no longer there. The singer of the song is haunted by the memory of their loved one, and they can see them in all the familiar places they used to go together. The small cafe, the park across the way, the children's carousel, the chestnut tree, and the wishing well all remind them of their beloved. The singer also expresses how they will find the memory of their loved one in every lovely summer day and all things that are bright and gay. They hope to find them in the morning sun and even looking at the moon at night. The song is full of hope and promise that despite the distance, love remains present and alive.

I'll be seeing you
I will always remember you and your memory will constantly be with me.

In all the old, familiar places
I will see you in all the familiar places we visited together and have shared memories of.

That this heart of mine embraces
My heart yearns for the places where we spent quality time together.

All day through
Throughout the day, my mind will be occupied with the memories of times spent with you.

In that small cafe
I will see you in that small cafe where we had our first date.

The park across the way
I'll remember you every time I pass by the park where we talked for hours under the shade of the big oak tree.

The children's carousel
I'll see you laughing together on the merry-go-round at the county fair.

The chestnut tree
The chestnut tree that stands tall and proud in the park where we shared our first kiss.

The wishing well
The wishing well where we tossed a coin together and wished for a future filled with love and joy.

In every lovely, summer's day
The beautiful and vibrant summer days will remind me of you.

And everything that's bright and gay
Every joyful moment and happy memory will bring back the image of you in my mind.

I'll always think of you that way
I'll always remember you as the light of my life, illuminating every moment with your presence.

I'll find you in the morning sun
I'll think of you first thing in the morning when the sun rises, as it reminds me of the warmth and love in your heart.

And when the night is new
Late at night, when the darkness seems to envelop everything, I'll still see you in my mind, happy and radiant.

I'll be looking at the moon
As I gaze at the moon, I'll be thinking of the countless beautiful moments we shared together, feeling blessed to have had you in my life.

But I'll be seeing you
Despite the distance and time between us, I will always carry your memory in my heart and never forget the love we shared.
