Young Hearts
Little Sister Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Looking around
Times of passion still in fashion
Stormy nights making love seem real
Then the fights let you know how you feel
How
Can't I
Sealer of a burning mind
Takes so long
With the lesson that we're learning, tell me
Why do young hearts
Burn so much?
Fall apart
With just one touch
Oh, and young hearts
Never know
When to say
Just let me go
People yearning
Hearts are burning
Breaking up is a lesson that were learning
Lonely days make the nights seem cold
Waking up leaves a story untold
How
Can't I
Be the keeper of the manor?
The future is a mystery still
Wait so long (So long)
For the message to be clearer, tell me
Why do young hearts
Burn so much?
Fall apart
With just one touch
Oh, and young hearts
Never know
When to say
Just let me go
Hearts are open
Words are spoken
Dreams are stirring
They've all become awoken
Broken pieces of the promises you made
Memories haunt you and never seem to fade
How
Can't I
Be the healer of the heartache?
Sealer of the burning mind
Takes so long (So long)
With the lesson that we're learning, tell me
Why do young hearts
Burn so much?
Fall apart
With just one touch
Oh, and young hearts
Never know
When to say
Just let me go
Young hearts
Young hearts
(They'll never know)
(They'll never know)
(When to let go)
Young hearts
Never know
When to say
Just let me go
In "Young Hearts" by Little Sister, the lyrics explore the complexities and challenges of young love. The song begins with the notion that love is waiting, and the singer is searching for it. Times of passion are still in fashion, indicating that intense emotions and experiences are still valued in relationships. Stormy nights are depicted as an opportunity for love to feel real, but fights serve as a reminder of the true emotions underlying the relationship.
The first paragraph contemplates the singer's role in the relationship. They question how they can't be the healer of heartache and the sealer of a burning mind. It seems like they want to be the one to bring comfort and resolution to the conflicts within the relationship. The line about the lesson they're learning suggests that they may be struggling to find the right approach or solution.
The chorus delves into the question of why young hearts burn so much and fall apart with just one touch. It acknowledges the passionate intensity and vulnerability of young love, where even the slightest touch can have a significant impact. Young hearts also struggle with knowing when to let go, clinging to emotions and relationships even when it may be best to move on.
Moving to the second paragraph, the lyrics highlight the pain that accompanies breaking up. People yearn for love, but hearts are left burning after the relationship ends. The loneliness of the days contrasts with the coldness of the nights, emphasizing the emotional turmoil following a breakup. Waking up leaves a story untold, suggesting that the closure and resolution they seek are still elusive.
Similar to the first verse, the second chorus poses the question of why they can't be the keeper of the manor and navigate the uncertain future. There is a longing for clarity and understanding that seems to take a long time to achieve. The repeated "so long" emphasizes the frustration and impatience of waiting for the message to become clearer.
The final paragraph expands on the theme of broken hearts and shattered promises. Hearts are open and words are spoken, indicating a vulnerability and emotional expression within the relationship. However, dreams are stirring and becoming awakened, perhaps suggesting that the singer is beginning to see the cracks in the relationship and the unfulfilled promises. The memories linger, haunting the singer despite their attempts to let go.
The song concludes with the final chorus, reiterating that young hearts never know when to say "just let me go." It encapsulates the struggle of young love, where emotions are intense, decisions are difficult, and the concept of letting go seems foreign. The final lines of repetition emphasize the youth and naivety of these hearts, highlighting their inability to recognize when it's time to move on.
