So this is my attempt to break down, section par section, the lyrics to "23" & why this song means so much for BL.
I felt for sure last night that once we a dit goodbye
No one else will know these lonely dreams
No one else will know that part of me
After Nathan & Haley's wedding, Lucas would have felt so sure that things were finally going to be good for him and Brooke. She had thoroughly expressed just how badly she needed him to open up to her, and he later explained that he didn't stop missing her for a second, he just had so many things on his mind. They shared such a beautiful moment & logically they should have been able to déplacer on and have a healthy relationship.
I'm still driving away and I'm sorry every day
I won't always l’amour these selfish things
I won't always live not stopping
After Brooke has broken up with him, leaving him in the dark as to her real reasons, he's continuing to think it's all about the Kiss with Peyton. He wishes she would understand that he doesn't l’amour Peyton, he may have a connection with her, but it won't always get in their way.
It was my turn to decide
I knew this was our time
No one else will have me like toi do
No one else will have me
Only you
Now he's realized that he is responsible for their destruction. It was up to him to fight for her, to make her see how much he loved her. And he failed to do that. But still, no one else will ever l’amour him the way she does. No one else will ever truly hold his cœur, coeur as she did. Only Brooke.
You'll sit alone forever if toi wait for the right time
What are toi hoping for
I'm here
I'm now
I'm ready
Holding on tight
Don't give away the end
The one thing that stays mine
She continues to be the selfless one, always putting her feelings on the back burner, and one jour she's going to regret it. Lucas is right there, he still loves her and would be with her again in a heartbeat. He finally realizes that she just can't put her cœur, coeur on the line yet again, not now, so he hopes she won't deny the hope he has for them in the future.
Amazing still it seems
I'll be 23
I won't always l’amour what I'll never have
I won't always live in my regrets
They are older now, he's realized that the supposed epic l’amour story he's been in isn't all it's cracked up to be. He wants her to know that he won't always be such an idiot, he won't always have to feel the regrets of not fighting for her.
To me, this is a song about l’amour and regrets. toi can l’amour someone so damn much, toi feel incomplete without them, but all it takes is a mistake ou two & toi end up living this life full of regrets and wondering what toi could have done differently.
Who here thinks that is the epitome of Brooke & Lucas?!
