Seventeen
Yearning for Lost Love: Echoes of Seventeen
Lyrics
Ever since I was young
Reflecting on youth and early expectations.
Always thought that you'd be the one
Anticipation that the person addressed would be a significant figure in life.
But I guess I was wrong
Realization that the initial expectation was incorrect.
But I guess I was wrong
Repetition emphasizing the acknowledgment of the mistake.
Mama said don't cry for a girl
Mother's advice not to cry over a girl.
Didn't know that I lost my whole world
Discovering the profound impact of losing someone important.
Now my heart's gone cold in the snow
Emotional numbness, contrasting with the turmoil in the external world.
While the world all around me burns
Feeling isolated and detached while the world faces chaos.
Tell me how do I forget everything Untrace your memory
Expressing difficulty in forgetting and erasing memories.
Baby, Tell me
Plea for information or guidance on moving on.
How do you break all the promises that you made me
Questioning the betrayal of promises made by the other person.
You made me, yeah
Reiteration of feeling betrayed by the person.
You're still the one
Affirmation that the person addressed is still special.
I'm still in love
Continued love despite the challenges.
And I'll never feel the way that it was
Acknowledgment that things will never be the same.
Maybe we could fall in love again
Hopeful suggestion of the possibility of rekindling love.
Like in my dreams
Nostalgia for a time when everything felt fresh and new.
Back when we were seventeen
Reference to the age of seventeen, a symbol of youthful romance.
Held you in the dark
Recollection of an intimate moment in the dark.
For a moment I could feel your beating heart, yeah
Temporary connection and the sensation of a heartbeat.
Simple days in the car
Evoking memories of simple, carefree days in a car.
Head on my shoulders just looking at the stars, yeah
Shared moments gazing at the stars.
If I'd have known it would be my last word
If aware of impending separation, expressing a desire to declare love again.
Would of said it again, that I love her
Regret over missed opportunities to express love.
Now my heart's gone cold in the snow
Recurrence of emotional coldness amidst external chaos.
While the world all around me burns
Contrast between personal emotions and the chaotic external world.
Tell me how do I forget everything Untrace your memory
Repetition of the struggle to forget and erase memories.
Baby, Tell me
Seeking answers or guidance in moving forward.
How do you break all the promises that you made me
Reiterating the breach of promises and the resulting pain.
you made me, yeah
Reaffirmation of feeling betrayed by the person.
You're still the one
Continued affirmation that the person is still significant.
I'm still in love
Expression of enduring love despite challenges.
And I'll never feel the way that it was
Acknowledgment that the past cannot be replicated.
Maybe we could fall in love again
Hopeful suggestion of the possibility of rekindling love.
Like in my dreams
Nostalgia for a time when everything felt fresh and new.
Back when we were seventeen
Reference to the age of seventeen, a symbol of youthful romance.
Tell me how do I forget everything Untrace your memory
Repetition of the struggle to forget and erase memories.
Baby, Tell me
Seeking answers or guidance in moving forward.
How do you break all the promises that you made me
Reiterating the breach of promises and the resulting pain.
You made me, Yeah
Reaffirmation of feeling betrayed by the person.
You're still the one
Continued affirmation that the person is still significant.
I'm still in love
Expression of enduring love despite challenges.
And I'll never feel the way that it was
Acknowledgment that the past cannot be replicated.
Maybe we could fall in love again
Hopeful suggestion of the possibility of rekindling love.
Like in my dreams
Nostalgia for a time when everything felt fresh and new.
