Only a Girl
Love's Resilience: Embracing Life Beyond Heartbreak
Lyrics
So she left me, said so long
Expressing that his partner left him, bidding farewell.
Yeah so what, I'll find someone
He's confident he'll find another person to be with.
In no time, with a little luck
Belief that he'll find someone new soon, with some luck.
It don't really bother me that much
Her departure doesn't greatly upset him.
It's only a girl
Stating that the departed person is just a girl, not crucial in quantity.
There's a million of 'em in this town
Asserting there are many girls in his vicinity.
Only a girl
Reiterating that the departed girl isn't significant.
They're everywhere, just look around
Noting the abundance of girls around him.
She don't matter anymore
Emphasizing she doesn't hold importance anymore.
I'm probably better off for sure
Speculating that he's likely better off without her.
It ain't the end of the world
Highlighting that her departure isn't catastrophic.
It's only a girl
Reiterating her insignificance in his life.
There goes, one now
Observing another girl passing by.
Pretty smile, oh well
Not particularly affected by her attractive appearance.
I watch her, walk by
Simply observing her as she walks past.
Just keep to, myself
Deciding to keep his thoughts to himself.
'Cause when you're in love with someone else
Reflecting that he's in love with someone else.
It's only a girl
Reiterating the lack of importance of any particular girl.
There's a million of 'em in this town
Reiterating the abundance of girls around him.
Only a girl
Highlighting the non-significance of the departed girl.
They're everywhere, just look around
Noting the prevalence of girls in his surroundings.
I know she just smiled at me
Recognizing a girl's smile directed towards him.
And as cool as that might be
Acknowledging the appeal of the situation, but downplaying its significance.
It ain't the end of the world
Emphasizing that her smile isn't a catastrophic event.
It's only a girl
Reiterating the insignificance of the girl.
What can keep you up all night,
Pondering what could deeply affect someone.
Make you believe that black is white,
Questioning the power to change perceptions.
Make you laugh, make you cry,
Highlighting the range of emotions a person can evoke.
Make it wrong, then make it right?
Describing the potential to rectify mistakes.
Only a girl
Reiterating the lack of significance of any single girl.
Only a girl
Concluding, emphasizing the absence of specific importance to any girl.
