Don't Look Back, Love
Chasing Love's Unspoken Echo
Lyrics
We get together every summer
We reunite each summer.
It's been that way since seventeen
This tradition has persisted since the age of seventeen.
On my mind, makin' me wonder
On my mind, prompting contemplation.
Is there a point in subtlety?
Questioning the value of subtlety.
You say you see straight through me, but you come in for a second look
You claim insight into my true self, yet you take a closer look.
And I say that there's somethin' to these feelings
I assert that there's depth to these emotions.
Don't look back, love, there's a million people
Advice not to dwell on the past, love, as there are countless people around.
But they don't get me quite like you
But none of them understand me as you do.
It's all comin' back, love, we don't talk about us
Recollections resurface, love, though we avoid discussing our relationship.
But I know you can feel it too
Yet, I sense you feel it too.
We just can't seem to find a label
We struggle to define our connection.
Even when our friends all know it's true
Even when our friends recognize its authenticity.
Missed all the signs, I'm playin' catch-up, don't stop
I overlooked the signs, now trying to catch up, urging not to cease.
'Cause I wanna take on the world with you
Expressing a desire to face the world together.
You say you see straight through me, but you come in for a second look
You claim insight into my true self, yet you take a closer look (repeated).
And I say that there's somethin' to these feelings
I assert that there's depth to these emotions (repeated).
Don't look back, love, there's a million people
Advice not to dwell on the past, love, as there are countless people around (repeated).
But they don't get me quite like you
But none of them understand me as you do (repeated).
It's all comin' back, love, we don't talk about us
Recollections resurface, love, though we avoid discussing our relationship (repeated).
But I know you can feel it too
Yet, I sense you feel it too (repeated).
Don't look back, love, love
Advice not to dwell on the past, love (repeated).
They don't get me quite like you
None of them understand me as you do (repeated).
It's all comin' back, love, love
Recollections resurface, love (repeated).
I know you can feel it too
I sense you feel it too (repeated).
Yeah I know you can feel it too
Affirmation that you feel the emotions as well.
I know you can feel it too
A repeated assurance that you feel the emotions.
