Young Love Chronicles: A Dance of Passion and Regret
Lyrics
It's just what all young lovers do
Expressing a common behavior of young lovers.
It's just what all young lovers do
Reiteration of the common actions of young lovers.
I noticed you
The speaker noticed the person addressed.
You stood out like a sore thumb
Describing the person as standing out conspicuously.
The most
Emphasizing the exceptional beauty of the person.
Beautiful sore thumb I'd ever seen
Complimenting the person as the most beautiful among others.
I took you out
The speaker took the person out for an enjoyable time.
And showed you a good time
Describing a positive experience of dancing all night.
We danced all night
Waiting for the right moment, possibly for a romantic gesture.
And I waited till the time was right when
Expressing a moment of feeling unwell or anxious.
I was almost sick on you
Mentioning an echo, possibly a repeated thought or feeling.
Echo echo of mine
Recollecting the first meeting with the person.
Do you recall
Expressing uncertainty about the reasons for playing a certain game.
The night that we first met
Indicating a guess that the actions are typical for young lovers.
And how I burnt your dress
Stating a perspective that things are neither right nor wrong.
With my cigarette
Repeating the idea of a perspective without clear right or wrong.
I don't know why
Reiterating the perspective of ambiguity or uncertainty.
But I played this game
Repeating the game-playing theme, possibly for the person.
For you
Suggesting a recurring pattern in the actions of young lovers.
I'm guessing it's just what all young lovers do
Reiteration of the common behavior of young lovers.
You say
Continuation of the perspective on ambiguity in actions.
That it's never wrong never right
Repeating the concept that things are neither right nor wrong.
Never wrong never right
Further emphasis on the echo, suggesting persistent thoughts or feelings.
Echo echo of mine
Repetition of the idea that things are never definitively right or wrong.
Never wrong never right
-Never wrong never right
-Never wrong never right
-Never wrong never right
-Never wrong never right
-Never wrong never right
-Never wrong never right
-Never wrong never right
-So echo on
Continued emphasis on the echo, possibly representing unresolved emotions.
Echo on
-Echo on
-Echo
-It's just what all young lovers do
Repeating the idea of typical actions for young lovers.
It's just what all young lovers do
Reiteration of the common behavior of young lovers.
It's just what all young lovers do
Final repetition of the idea of typical actions for young lovers.
