I Just Wanna Fall In Love

Foreign Forest's song 'I Just Wanna Fall In Love' delves into the emotional turmoil of longing for love and the haunting feeling of being forgotten. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone who feels like they are fading away, turning into a ghost, as they grapple with the fast-paced, chaotic nature of their life. The repeated line 'I think I'm turning into a ghost now' symbolizes a sense of invisibility and insignificance, as if the singer is losing their sense of self and presence in the world.

The song also touches on themes of memory and the fear of being forgotten. The singer expresses a deep desire to be remembered by someone they once loved, despite the inevitability of being forgotten. This is poignantly captured in the lines 'I know that one day you'll forget me / But I just hope you keep me in your memory.' The mention of a lost promise ring signifies broken promises and unfulfilled commitments, adding to the sense of loss and regret.

In the chorus, the singer's yearning for genuine connection is evident. They express a desire to find a friend who doesn't 'wanna play pretend' and to escape the superficiality of fame and money. The repeated plea 'Please just hold my hand' underscores a desperate need for physical and emotional closeness, highlighting the singer's vulnerability and longing for love. The song's melancholic tone and introspective lyrics resonate with anyone who has ever felt lost, forgotten, or in search of true connection.
