I feel like Sweetest devotion ties it up and is a perfect transition.
21 was about the break up and admittedly childish in a way that we are fresh off of a breakup.
25 is her taking responsibility and being retrospective and introspective to look from a more enlightened point of view.
There are three choices that fits to tying up that loose end of feelings about the end of the relationship
Water under the bridge: To me it's a great single but it doesn't have enough pizazz to really be that song that you are referring to
Sweetest devotion: Moving on because she's found something bigger, greater and much more important to invest her emotions in.
I feel as though
Hello starts the retrospection
When we were young starts the introspection
Send my love starts the moving on with and moving into a better place
Water under the bridge really wraps things up
Sweetest devotion defines a shift in her emotional investment into something much more meaningful
And she's grown as bleep so throw in I miss you because she still needs the D and to serve sexy teas. Just because she's a mother doesn't mean she's not allowed to get it from her man
I do love Love in the dark too but it's a great album track for me.
With these 5 songs released as official singles keeping in mind WWWY won't count
I feel like it would explain the album and capture all of the elements to show her transitional storyline
