But he will be soon 23 and he finds that he is not that young anymore and that the girl won't wait for him forever. So he knows that he should not wait any longer to accept that that is a real relationship and make her know that, but it's not easy for him to do so. He knows that he will always be alone and wait for a better moment that would never cme because it would be too late if now is not a moment good enough to tell her he loves her. Anyway, I love the song and though I am a girl, I have been going through the same feelings and I will soon be 23 :D fucking love it | Reviewer: anonomus or however its spelt | 10/6/09 the guy i...pretty much love but fucked everything up with told me about jimmy eat world and i heard this song. its amazing , when i listen to it i want to turn it of because the lyrics are too relatable but i cant its too good a song. xx 8D | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/9/09 this song is about , well , lets say , a girl , is in love with this guy , but hes not ready , and the girl is always there for him , but hes not ready and he doesnt realize shes the one for him. and its about the feelings the girl has for him. -- Story of my life , i tell you :) <3 | Reviewer: Sally | 1/6/09 What i think is amazing is how this song means so many different things to different people. It's been written so perfectly in a way that so many people can relate to. For me, this song is relevant to a situation i'm in where the boy i'm falling for is with another girl, despite admitting he has feelings for me, and trying to break up with her numerous times. "Youll sit alone forever If you wait for the right time What are you hoping for? I'm here and now I'm ready Holding on tight" This bit describes perfectly how i feel about him staying in a situation where he's not happy with someone else, when he could be happy with me. "I wont always love what I'll never have" Then this part also expresses the frustration i feel as they continue their relationship. AN AMAZING SONG! Him.... | Reviewer: Aly | 1/2/09 This song makes me think of the guy I broke up with for the stupidest reason. I love him and now I don't think I'll ever get him back. I just heard it today... I think this will be the first of many (many many...) times that I hear it. i have no words | Reviewer: zjuza | 12/16/08 i heard this song from girl that i love... when i listened this song, and readed lyrics, now im every day last 3 months listening to this song, and my computer is turned on all the night while im sleeping just to play this song all night, yes, i feel depressed little when i listen this song but...the feel is wonderful and this song shots into heart..... 23 | Reviewer: Greg | 12/7/08 So the girl I love the most in this world turned 23 Today, December 8th, and I called her to wish her a happy birthday while listening to this song. The problem is that we are no longer together and while we were together this was OUR song. I promised her one day that if we were together until we were 23, I would marry her. But sadly, because of the many mistakes I made, that is very difficult now. "23" makes me so sad every time I hear it, but happy at the same time to remember all the amazing times we had. C., I love you Love this song | Reviewer: Martha | 10/8/08 The first time I listened to this song it came up on shuffle when I was in a cab in Prague and it was Autumn and the scenery was just amazing. It really is a beautiful place, especially with all the goldish brown leaves everywhere. Now every time I listen to this song it reminds me of that cab ride. It's definitely one of my favourite Jimmy Eat World songs. =) <333 | Reviewer: Polly | 9/23/08 The lyrics to this song define the beauty of simplicity Okay, so im not 23, nor near that, but a day doesnt go by where I dont listen to this song I've stupidly given my heart to a boy who has already handed his over to his ex...it will be a long wait til he gets it back - if he ever does. I didn't consider that until this song though "It was my turn to decide I knew this was our time No one else will have me like you do No one else will have me, only you" God bless Jimmy Eat World! ..wow | Reviewer: Stephen | 7/14/08 This song is sick..i'm not into the whole love thing I could care less..it's about what the song makes me feel. Learning the guitar tabs on this song is kinda difficult but when you play it people are amazed. Love jimmy eat world always have Add Your New Review About The Song By Pages:   1    2
