Young Love
Chris Brown Lyrics

Young love
The feeling of love experienced by teenagers

Oh, a teenage love
A statement emphasizing the youthfulness of the love being referred to

Young love
The feeling of love experienced by teenagers

Uh-huh, yeah
Agreement with the previous statements

A teenage love
The love being referred to is that of teenagers

Young love, young love
Repeated emphasis on the feeling of love experienced by teenagers

Everything I need, I got in my young love
The love being experienced is fulfilling and satisfying

Young love
The feeling of love experienced by teenagers

A teenage love
The love being referred to is that of teenagers

Tell me what's the definition of love?
A question posed to emphasize the ambiguity surrounding the feeling of love

Seems like everybody thinks they done figured it out but
Acknowledgement of the varying opinions on what love truly is

Every time they fall up in it
When people fall in love

They fall out, in and out it again
They tend to fall in and out of love repeatedly

Tell me how they gonna know about us?
Questioning how others can judge the love experienced by the singer and his partner

Tellin' me and you that we ain't even been around long enough
Others trying to tell the singer and his partner that their love hasn't been around long enough to be considered real

We can prove 'em wrong, show 'em how it's done
The singer and his partner have confidence in their love, and they can prove to others that it is real

I know we can do it 'cause
The singer is certain that they can prove their love is real

If it's wildin' out (we got that)
If their relationship becomes tumultuous, they can handle it

Then forgivin' (we got that)
They can forgive each other and move forward in their relationship

If it's talkin' 'bout how we feelin' (we got that)
They can communicate their feelings to each other

If it's hangin' out, keepin' it real then (we got that)
They can spend time together and be honest with each other

Since we ain't twenty-one (oh)
The singer and his partner are not yet old enough to legally enter nightclubs

They be tryna say it ain't love (a teenage love)
Others are trying to say that their love isn't real because of their age

'Cause we can't hit the clubs
Their inability to enter nightclubs makes others doubt the sincerity of their love

They be tryna say we're too young (a teenage love)
Others believe they are too young to experience genuine love

I ain't sayin' that we're tryna be grown
The singer is not pretending to be more mature than he actually is

I'm just sayin' that we're old enough to know
The singer and his partner are mature enough to understand and experience genuine love

We lucky 'cause we got that young love
The singer feels grateful to have experienced genuine love at a young age

It's crazy how all our friends say
The reactions of their friends towards their relationship is baffling to the singer and his partner

That we gone, they still tryna figure us out, babe
Their friends are still trying to understand their relationship despite it being obvious to the singer and his partner

'Cause we always together
The singer and his partner spend a lot of time together

And we don't gotta front, we ain't gotta pretend, girl
They are able to be themselves around each other without pretending

And you know a couple of 'em gon' hate (yeah)
Some of their friends are not supportive of their relationship

Talk behind your back (and)
Their unsupportive friends talk negatively about their relationship behind their backs

Smile up in your face (oh, girl)
Their unsupportive friends pretend to be happy for them in person

We can prove 'em wrong and show 'em how it's done
The singer and his partner are confident that they can prove their love is real

And, girl, I know that we can do it just because
The singer is certain that they can prove their love is real

We can hit a show (yeah)
They can attend events together

Kick it on the block (yup)
They can hang out with each other

Everywhere we go (uh-huh)
They go everywhere together

Young love, young love, young love (what?)
Repeating emphasis on the feeling of love experienced by teenagers

(A teenage love, uh-huh, yeah)
The love being referred to is that of teenagers

Just talkin' on the phone (uh-uh)
Spending time talking to each other on the phone

Or layin' at the spot (oh)
Spending time together in one place

No matter what we do (yup)
They enjoy spending time together no matter what they do

You know they can't stop that
Their love cannot be stopped by outsiders

Young love, young love, young love
Emphasis on the feeling of love experienced by teenagers

You're my young love, yeah (a teenage love)
The singer's partner is his teenage love

Since we ain't twenty-one (I don't care how old we are)
The singer doesn't care that they are not old enough to legally enter nightclubs

They be tryna say it ain't love (a teenage love) (no, baby)
Others are trying to say that their love isn't real because of their age, but the singer disagrees

'Cause we can't hit the clubs (oh, oh)
Their inability to enter nightclubs makes others doubt the sincerity of their love

They be tryna say we're too young (yeah, yeah, a teenage love)
Others believe they are too young to experience genuine love

I ain't sayin' that we're tryna be grown (you ain't too young)
The singer is not pretending to be more mature than he actually is

(And God knows I ain't too young for love)
The singer believes he is not too young to experience genuine love

I'm just sayin' that we're old enough to know (oh)
The singer and his partner are mature enough to understand and experience genuine love

We got that young love, young love
They experience the feeling of love associated with teens

You're my young love, baby, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
The singer's partner is his teenage love

Everything I want I got in my young love (young love)
The love that the singer is experiencing satisfies all his needs

Well, it's my young love, young love
The love being referred to belongs to the singer

Everything I want I got in my young love (young love)
The love that the singer is experiencing satisfies all his desires
