You Just Get Older
Eternal Echoes of Youthful Love: Embracing Life's Unforgettable Lessons
Lyrics
Seventeen, do you remember seventeen?
Reflecting on being seventeen, prompting a recollection.
I remember everything, you were my everything
Recalling a significant person who was everything in the past.
Too Naive, maybe we were too naive
Suggesting that they might have been too inexperienced or innocent.
Thinking we were meant to be
Belief in being destined to be together.
And love was all we'd ever need
Love was perceived as the sole requirement for happiness.
But seasons change and years roll on by
Acknowledging the passage of time and changing seasons.
The more they do the more I realize
Realization that time passing leads to increased understanding.
You can grow up, but you never outgrow
Emphasizing that affection remains despite growing up.
Loving someone you had to let go
Loving someone even after having to let them go.
Yeah moving on ain't easy as they told ya
Contrasting the difficulty of moving on with popular belief.
People say time's good at healing
Hopeful notion that time heals emotional wounds.
But a heartbreak's just one those feelings
Heartbreak being an enduring emotion despite time.
You never really ever do get over
Perpetual impact of never fully overcoming heartbreak.
You just get older
Realization that one only ages without truly overcoming past love.
Part of you, there will always be part you
An innate part that always recalls and longs for the past.
That my heart'll kinda run back to
A heart's tendency to reminisce despite being with someone new.
Even when I with someone new
The lingering presence of past goodbyes despite moving forward.
I always thought that, that goodbye
Belief that goodbyes fade away, contrasted with their lasting impact.
Was something that you leave behind
Surprising realization that goodbyes stay with us permanently.
Turns out it sticks around for your whole life
Goodbyes persist throughout one's entire life.
You can grow up, but you never outgrow
Reiteration of the idea that affection endures despite maturing.
Loving someone you had to let go
Continued love for someone despite letting them go.
Yeah moving on ain't easy as they told ya
Reaffirming the difficulty of moving on despite common belief.
People say time's good at healing
Faith in time's ability to heal emotional wounds.
But a heartbreak's just one those feelings
Heartbreak as a feeling that persists despite time passing.
You never really ever do get over
The enduring impact of heartbreak on one's emotional state.
You just get older
Realization that one simply ages without completely getting over heartbreak.
You just get older
Reiteration of the concept that age increases while the pain lingers.
You learn that you can lose what you couldn't live without
Understanding the possibility of losing something irreplaceable.
I'm happy and I hope you are wherever you are now
Wishing happiness for the person from the past.
You can grow up, but you never outgrow
Continued affection for someone despite having to let them go.
Loving someone you had to let go
Reiterating the enduring love for someone despite separation.
Yeah moving on ain't easy as, easy as they told ya
Reaffirming the difficulty of moving forward as commonly understood.
People say time's good at healing
Belief in time's healing power for emotional wounds.
But a heartbreak's just one those feelings
Heartbreak being an emotion that persists despite time.
You never really ever do get over
The lasting impact of heartbreak on one's emotions.
No you never really ever do get over
Acknowledgment that one doesn’t completely overcome heartbreak.
You just get older
Reiteration that aging occurs while the emotional pain remains.
You just get older
Ageing is the only certainty while the feelings persist.
