Young Lovers
Eternal Moments: Embracing the Timeless Tale of Young Love
Lyrics
Young lovers, young lovers, young lovers
Repeated emphasis on the presence of young lovers in various places.
I see them everywhere I go
Observation of encountering young couples frequently.
Holding hands in the park
Describing the act of young lovers holding hands in a park.
As the sky grows dark
Setting the scene with the darkening sky as the evening progresses.
Young lovers don't want to go home
Young lovers are reluctant to leave, enjoying each other's company.
Young lovers, young lovers, young lovers
Reiteration of the pervasive presence of young couples.
They drive me right out of my mind
Expressing frustration or feeling overwhelmed by observing young lovers.
Lying down by the river
Depiction of young lovers lying near a river, possibly sharing intimate moments.
Whispering 'forever'
Whispering about a commitment to each other for eternity.
Young lovers, they don't have very long
Implying that the time for young lovers is limited or fleeting.
Everybody was a young lover once
Reflecting on the universal experience of everyone being a young lover at some point.
See that old man coming down the road, shuffling on a stick
Observing an elderly man approaching, suggesting he was once a young lover.
Once he pressed a girl against a fence and drank her kiss
Recollection of a past moment of intimacy where the man kissed a girl against a fence.
And never knew such tenderness
Expressing the depth of emotion experienced during that intimate encounter.
And holds still in his head that bliss
He still remembers and cherishes that moment of happiness.
Now he has to sit down to take a piss
Highlighting the physical effects of aging, contrasted with the memories of youth.
Young lovers, young lovers, young lovers
Continued observation of the prevalence of young lovers, possibly emphasizing their increasing numbers.
They seem to get younger every year
Noting the apparent trend of younger individuals engaging in romantic relationships.
Find a job, get a loan
Suggesting the typical progression of adulthood—finding work and financial responsibilities.
Raise some kids 'til they're grown
Responsibilities of raising children until they reach maturity.
Young lovers, they don't have very long
Reiteration of the fleeting nature of youth for young couples.
Young lovers don't know what's coming on
Implying the unawareness of what the future holds for young lovers.
