Young Love

from Before I Was Fine by John Louis

/

about

The finished version of a song that was ultimately replaced with "For Now".

lyrics

I think my heart stopped
I feel the seconds pass
I knew I wanted her love
When I looked up from my glass

Isn't it such a shame how she gets stuck in my head?
I'm like a moth to the flame
She pulled me in and she said

“I wasn't looking for someone,
Just trying to feel.
I wasn't looking for answers,
Just trying to heal.
Baby, I'm feeling alone tonight
We could turn out the lights
And I could show you a good time…”

She's got a bad idea
And I'm thinking the same
Got her hair undone
And she's calling my name
One touch, giving into the pressure
Young love doesn't know any better

I'm just her new complication
It's all a little too much
Now I've got a bad reputation
I'm trying hard to keep up

I'm always looking for someone
Just trying to feel
Maybe I'll look for some answers
Start trying to heal
She said, "I'm all on my own tonight.
Won't you turn out the lights
And let me ease into your mind?"

It's not that complicated
I think I'm falling for you
Burning stars in your eyes;
Such a beautiful view
Speed limit's overrated
Let's throw this baby in drive
I've never felt so alive

Headstrong, naive, under pressure
Young love doesn't know any better

There's no letting go since I met her
Young love doesn't know any better
