When We Were Young
Timeless Love: Rediscovering the Essence of Youth in Philip Baites' Song
Lyrics
It's been a really long time since I've seen your face
Expressing a significant amount of time passing since encountering the person addressed.
It's been a really long time a really long time
Reiterating the prolonged duration since the last meeting.
A lot of things a lot of things have changed
Highlighting the numerous changes that have occurred over time.
But my love for you has stayed the same
Asserting that despite changes, the speaker's love has remained constant.
Just let me love you one more time
Requesting an opportunity to express love once more.
I promise I won't ever run
Pledging not to flee and to remain committed.
And you will see the reasons why
Assuring that reasons for love will become evident.
You loved me back when we were young
Recalling a time when the addressed person loved the speaker during youth.
Just let me love you one more time
Repetition of the request for one more chance to love.
I promise I won't ever run
Reiterating the commitment not to run away.
And you will see the reasons why
Reassuring that the reasons for love will be evident again.
You loved me back when we were young
Recalling love during the shared youth of the speaker and the addressed person.
Back when we were young
Repetition emphasizing the nostalgia for the past and the shared experiences during youth.
Back when we were young
-But we're miles away and miles apart
-Odds are that we'll never start again
-Odds are that we'll never talk again
-Wouldn't that be a shame
-We're miles away and miles apart
-Odds are that we'll never start again
-Odds are that this ocean in between might stay like this forever
-Just let me love you one more time
-I promise I won't ever run
-And you will see the reasons why
-You loved me back when we were young
-Just let me love you one more time
-I promise I won't ever run
-And you will see the reasons why
-You loved me back when we were young girl
-Back when we were young girl
-Back when we were young girl
-Back when we were young girl
-Back when we were young girl
-Back when we were young girl
-Back when we were young girl
-Back when we were young girl
-Darling I can love you I can love you
Repeated expressions of the speaker's capability and desire to love the addressed person.
Darling I can love you I can love you
-Darling I can love you darling let me love you
-Darling I can love you I can love you
-Darling I can love you I can love you
-Darling I can love you darling let me love you
-Darling I can love you I can love you
-Darling I can love you I can love you
-Darling I can love you darling let me love you
-Darling I can love you darling let me love you
-Darling let me love you
A final plea to allow the speaker to express love.
