Lyrics
one, two
Introduction or countdown
one, two, three
Continuation of introduction or countdown
Mmmmmm
Expression or sound, possibly indicating reflection
I remember the day that I met her
Recollection of the day when the singer met someone
It was easy to love each other
Emphasis on the ease of love during that time
But that was then and this is now
Contrast between the past and present
I can't believe we didn't figure it out
Regret or disbelief about not figuring things out
We never said what we were thinking
Communication issues in the past relationship
Holding our thoughts in a ship that's sinking
Metaphor of holding thoughts in a sinking ship
But that was then and this is now
Contrast between the past and present regrets
I can't believe we didn't figure it out
Regret or disbelief about not figuring things out (repeated)
Love comes easy when you're young
Reflection on the ease of love in youth
I miss being young
Expressing a longing for the youthful experience
Ooooooo
Expressing emotion or emphasis (vocalization)
Ooooooo
-Feelings faded as we get older
Recognition of feelings diminishing with age
It was so hard to love each other
Highlighting the difficulty of love in the current state
We owned the night and got hungover
Recollection of past nights and the aftermath
Woke up in the bed that we made together
Waking up in a bed created together with someone
My sheets gone cold without your body
Feelings of coldness without the partner's presence
I can really use somebody
Expressing a need for companionship
Love comes easy when you're young
Reflection on the ease of love in youth (repeated)
I miss being young
Expressing a longing for the youthful experience (repeated)
Ooooooo
Expressing emotion or emphasis (vocalization, repeated)
Ooooooo
-Ooooooo
-I miss being young
Reiteration of the longing for being young
I miss being young
Repetition of the longing for being young
When we were in love
Nostalgia for past love
I'm scared of growing old
Fear of the aging process
Oh I miss being young
Expressing a continued longing for youth
Oh I miss I miss being young
Repetition of missing being young
I miss being young
Final expression of missing the youthful experience
