Unforgetful You

I never minded calling You a King
If that meant that I could count on You
To give me everything
I never thought to ask You
I always thought You knew
It was never my intention to question You
You never minded calling me a child
Well, I guess that's how I acted all the while
But You live through every tantrum,
You see through every lie
Though they seem to be more common
I just wanted You to know why oh why
Unforgetful You, unforgetful
Unforgetful You, so unforgetful
You never minded giving us the stars
Then showing us how blind and unaware of You we are
You painted me a picture and showed me how to see
Though I just won't behold itUnless it pertains to me...
-Jars of Clay

I've had many an argument with friends over what is said at the beginning of that song. "I want to know why"? "I'm watching over you"? etc.

They once played this at a secular night at the roller rink. I was like, "YES! A song I know the words to:)"

You know, I've never really put much thought into it, generally speaking, I get caught up on a thought from the first song, "Goodbye,Goodnight." I'll have to listen to that song first sometime.
