| Elliott Smith – Thirteen (Big Star cover) Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| yea I agree with the people stating it is about the innocence of being in love for the first time. I also think this song is longing for something as well. Maybe this guy didn't have the opportunity of experiencing what he talks about in the song. Who knows. We don't, but it is cool cause we can have our own interpretations. When I listen to it I feel the person might have been missing something because the song to me is really sad. I hear a person asking himself questions "can i walk you home from school", won't you let me meet you at the pool" but that is all they are and he never could have the opportunity to actually do this. He is emotionally expressing his sorrow in a sort of painful way of how he felt but did not act upon. This is my take. To me the song is just a dream. It is a girl he thought was beautiful but never felt right or was in the position to act upon these lines he sings in the song. | |
