i love this song because its beautiful obviously but also because my name is eliza and my boyfriend burned this song on a cd for me... "Still now you're waiting to grow Inside you're old" this reminds me of a bob dylan song..'my back pages' where he says "ah but i was so much older then, im younger than that now".. we all have wisdom in our souls but as we grow and experience more, our hearts become more youthful, or at least can appreciate the beauty of youth and innocence.
