This is a song about a 19th century couple who are walking in a garden. They have been courting for some time and the gentleman has decided to profess his love to the young lady. He goes on to tell her about the wonderful life that she can look forward to if she accepts his proposal of marriage. The gentleman, sure that his feelings are not unrequited, is surprised when she doesn’t respond immediately. After a few moments, he starts to say something and the young lady puts her fingers gently to his lips and says, “All I ask, is that you tread gently upon my heart. For I have been here before.â€.
