What beautiful memories this song brings back. It was one which you can sing when you ARE young and looking forward, and NOW for me, a look back and realize how fortunate I was to have a time when I could be "naiive". While it could be a love song, it's is also a song about regret, regret about things we didn't do, and also about the naiive hopes we had. It really is a good thing about "being young".
