Songfacts®:

  • This is the title track of the The Young Eyes EP, which also contains the song "Seasoned Eyes Were Beaming." Lov explained to The Los Angeles Times the meaning behind the titles: "The album to me is about the challenge of holding onto your idealism after you lose your innocence. As you get older, it's harder to find the beauty and the excitement and that amazing feeling you have when you're young and you look out at the world and you're intrigued so easily. It's about finding the things that make you feel that way through seasoned eyes. It's almost impossible it seems to see the world again through young eyes, but when you can, it's a gift."
