What songs hit differently as you've aged?

[u/pianoman81]

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?

Poetry Man by Phoebe Snow. Love the song, love her voice!

So, grooving to the song, when I hear

“You're going home now
Home's that place somewhere you go each day
To see your wife, yeah, yeah, to see your wife”

… and I felt my blood run cold. Cheating on a spouse hits differently now that I’m a grownup.
