"Stand Forever" by Heffron Drive is a song that tells the story of unrequited love and the longing for a connection with someone. The lyrics describe a person who has been observing and studying someone from a distance, hoping to catch their attention. They are unsure if the other person has noticed them or smiled at them, but they are determined to make a move. The protagonist expresses their desire to be with this person, hoping that one day they will be together. They want the other person to see them the way they see them, to understand their feelings and emotions. The protagonist urges the other person not to cry and assures them that they don't want to hurt them. The song also portrays the personal struggle of the protagonist, who wishes to unremember the person they are in love with. They hope that by receiving a final gesture of affection (a kiss blown to them), they can let go and move on. However, there is still a strong desire for a reconciliation, as the protagonist believes that they just need some time alone together. The chorus repeats the longing for being with the person and being seen by them as they see the protagonist. The last part of the song depicts the protagonist's willingness to let the person go if they want to leave but also their hope that the person will choose to stay. Overall, "Stand Forever" reflects the longing, hope, and struggles of unrequited love, with the protagonist hoping for a chance to be seen, understood, and loved by the person they are infatuated with.
