I can’t help but feel heartbroken… The lyrics, just like the song’s title, express a desire to put a “period” on feelings for you—they’re truly tear-jerking.
Trying to forget “you,” changing hairstyles and even moving, yet still being unable to sort out those feelings—there’s something of youthful love in that, isn’t there? If spring is when things begin, it’s also when things end.
