Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
baby Oo oo don't waste your time.
You're still a young man

Down on my knees
Whole heart in hand

Can't you understand
That I think like a man
You're still a young man

Cause I'm not so bad
I could make you happy

You're too young to love (If you and I could be together)
You're too young to love (I'd get to you through any weather)
You're too young to love (I love you YES I love you Oo Lady)
You're too young to love (I'll never never leave you alone yeah)
You're too young Ooo Ooo (You're mine Oh sweet lady)
Don't waste your time

The central theme of Bloodstone's song "You're Still a Young Man" is about being misunderstood for being too young and inexperienced in love. The lyrics describe how the singer is accused of being too young to understand love, but has the heart of a mature man. The chorus emphasizes the idea that the intended recipient of his affection is still young too, and that they should not waste time on trivial things or let their youth keep them from loving each other fully.
The opening lines, "You're still a young man, baby, don't waste your time," sets the tone for the rest of the song. The verses describe the singer's passion and commitment to love, even though he is being misunderstood and judged by those who think he is too young to know what he wants. He insists that he is not too young and that he thinks like a man. He is willing to do whatever it takes to prove his worth and love for his intended reciprocate.
In the end, the lyrics reveal that the singer has moved on after being rejected for being "too young." He assures his former lover that he is not a bad man and that he would have made her happy if she had given him a chance. The repeated lyrics, "You're still a young man, baby, don't waste your time" at the end of the song come across as a double entendre, with the singer possibly speaking to himself or to his former lover. Either way, the message is clear - time should not be wasted on trivial things when love is at stake.
