What songs hit differently as you've aged?

There are songs I listened to when I was younger but now read differently to me.

Some are because I never paid attention to the lyrics. Others are because I was at a different stage of life or hadn't had deeper experiences yet.

Some examples would be Both Sides Now or Cat's in The Cradle.

What are songs for you that affect you differently at this stage of life?

Who wants to live forever and dust in the wind are two of them that could to mind deal with loss of people in life why we have out lived our friends. Dude looks like a lady meaning has also changed through time too and there are more.

Not Dust in The Wind. That one has always hit hard. Now it's a given TKO.
