Just an Old Love
Echoes of Love Resurfaced

Stare across the room
Observing or gazing at a distance within the room.
It's just an old love, just an old love

Seems to me

It's just a ghost of someone new
Describing the observed love as a ghost of a more recent relationship.
It's just an old love that's
Emphasizing the return of a past love unexpectedly.
Come back way too soon
Indicating the untimely reappearance of the old love.
I find myself wondering about him
Expressing thoughts about the old love, suggesting a lingering curiosity.
Now and then like some dream overdue

Sometimes on the avenue like we're

Both without a balloon

Feels like the roses are still in bloom
Suggesting that the positive aspects of the past relationship, represented by roses, still persist.
So don't mind me if a
Requesting understanding if tears suddenly appear, attributing them to the old love.
Sudden teardrops start to fall

It's just an old love and that's all
Emphasizing that the emotions are confined to the realm of an old love.
There's no getting away from a memory
Acknowledging the inescapability of memories.
Sometimes all it takes is a melody
Highlighting the power of a melody to evoke memories.
Don't mind me if my
Asking not to be bothered if life takes a wandering path.
Life to wondering through

Something I see in you
Implies seeing qualities of the old love in someone else.
Deep within in the shadow of my doubt
Expressing uncertainty and insecurity hidden in doubt.
Last night, I had his picture out
Recalling an occasion of looking at a picture of the old love.
To see if his eyes would still shine
Checking if the old love's eyes still possess their previous brightness.
Sure enough and right away
Confirming the continued brightness of the old love's eyes.
I had to look the other way
Feeling compelled to look away, indicating emotional struggle.
Just couldn't keep my heart off of my mind
Expressing difficulty in diverting thoughts from the old love.
So don't mind me if I

Come back way too soon
Reiterating the reappearance of the old love too soon.
Just an old love but that ain't nothing new
Affirming that the old love is a familiar experience but not a new occurrence.
