This song has such weird lyrics, like the part "He doesn't look a thing like Jesus..." Why would someone look like Jesus? Just explain the basic song idea to me. THanks. I DON"T need the lyrics posted, i'm just curious what the heck this song is even about...

The song is basically talking about a girl who has had a lot of heartache. She has finally found a boy that's like the ones she always imagined when she was young. He isn't perfect like Jesus, but he is good enough. It's just about finding the person you have been dreaming about since you were young. It's a really great song, even though the lyrics are a little strange. I love it. Hope this helps!

When You Were Young
You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful boy to
To save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it now ... here he comes!
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentleman
Like you imagined when you were young
Can we climb this mountain
I don't know
Higher now than ever before
I know we can make it if we take it slow
Let's take it easy
Easy now, watch it go
We're burning down the highway skyline
On the back of a hurricane that started turning
When you were young
When you were young
And sometimes you close your eyes
and see the place where you used to live
When you were young
They say the devil's water, it ain't so sweet
You don't have to drink right now
But you can dip your feet
Every once in a little while
You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful boy to
To save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it now here he comes
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentleman
Like you imagined when you were young
(He talks like a gentlemen, like you imagined when)
When you were young
I said he doesn't look a thing like Jesus
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But more than you'll ever know
Good Luck!

It just means, he doesn't look like Jesus, but he saves her.
