22 Again
Love Rediscovered: Navigating Life's Twists at Twenty-Two
Lyrics
Nine-teen, summer skin
Nineteen, reflecting on the time with youthful and carefree spirit
Daydreamin', sweet grin
Daydreaming with a sweet smile
Prayin' for a good man to head my way
Praying for a good man to enter her life
Twenty-two, said I do
At twenty-two, decided to get married
Seemed to make a break through
Seemed to achieve a breakthrough in life
But no one ever tells you about that day
Realizing that no one warns you about the challenges of that day
Cause the fights came sooner than I thought they would
Experiencing conflicts in the relationship earlier than expected
And you let me down harder than I knew you should
Feeling let down more severely than anticipated
Slammed doors, out of luck
Encountering arguments and bad luck
Makes ya throw your hands up
Frustration leading to raising hands in despair
Look to the heavens and say
Turning to the heavens, seeking guidance
Here I am Lord, gimme a clue
Requesting a clue from the Lord
How to ditch the happy ever after blues
Searching for a way to overcome post-marriage blues
They don't tell ya how to make it right
Highlighting the absence of guidance on making things right
But you can guarantee that Imma put up a fight
Determined to fight for a better outcome
Guess I'll go back to where it began
Considering going back to the beginning
And love that boy like I'm twenty-two again
Expressing a desire to love her partner as she did at twenty-two
Twenty-two again
Reiterating the wish to feel twenty-two again
Head spinnin', heart achin'
Feeling dizzy and heartbroken
Lord knows I could use a break and
Expressing a need for a break
Gettin' through is such a fight
Struggling to get through difficult times
Give me patience, give me strength
Requesting patience and strength
Get me through another day
Seeking assistance to find love within
Help me find the love inside
Reiterating the earlier challenges in the relationship
Cause the fights came sooner than I thought they would
Encountering conflicts sooner than expected, again
And you let me down harder than I knew you should
Feeling let down more severely, once more
Slammed doors, out of luck
Dealing with slammed doors and bad luck, again
Makes ya throw your hands up
Frustration leading to raising hands in despair, again
Look to the heavens and say
Turning to the heavens, seeking guidance, again
Here I am Lord, gimme a clue
Requesting a clue from the Lord, again
How to ditch the happy ever after blues
Searching for a way to overcome post-marriage blues, again
They don't tell ya how to make it right
Highlighting the absence of guidance on making things right, again
But you can guarantee that Imma put up a fight
Determined to fight for a better outcome, again
Guess I'll go back to where it began
Considering going back to the beginning, again
And love that boy like I'm twenty-two again
Expressing a desire to love her partner as she did at twenty-two, again
Twenty-two again
Reiterating the wish to feel twenty-two again, again
(Oh twenty-two again)
Repeating the desire to be twenty-two again
Whoa, here I am Lord, gimme a clue
Reiterating the request for a clue from the Lord, again
How to ditch the happy ever after blues
Searching for a way to overcome post-marriage blues, again
They don't tell ya how to make it right
Highlighting the absence of guidance on making things right, again
But you can guarantee that Imma put up a fight
Determined to fight for a better outcome, again
Guess I'll go back to where it began
Considering going back to the beginning, again
And love that boy like I'm twenty-two again
Expressing a desire to love her partner as she did at twenty-two, again
Gimme a clue
Reiterating the request for a clue from the Lord, again
Take me back to twenty-two
Expressing a longing to return to the age of twenty-two
Oh, oh
Ending with an exclamation of longing for being twenty-two again
