Lyric discussion by LongBlackTrain 

Rubyoverdiamonds, you are one of my favourite people in the world since you share my love of this song. What else could you ask for in a 3-minute pop song? Few bands have ever done melody, soul and yearning as well as the Field Mice, and this early effort has it all - in spades. What does this song mean to me? It means exactly how it once felt to be in love with someone unobtainable, and finding life-affirming solace in the redemptive power of a simple, unadorned pop song. Nice one, Bob.
