I take this song much more seriously then "boy likes girl, girl has boyfriend." I wish some people knew more about how true, and how painful these feelings are. In the live version, Jason's voice cracks and has this humge sigh at the beginning. I think he really feels this song.
Ok, what it means. A guy and girl have been best friends for years. When they are older, he realizes he really likes her, but is afraid of telling her. As time goes on, his feelings grow stronger and eventualy is in love with her. His "double life" is being best friends with her, and then secretly in love with her. He know's he can't tell her because he could be "risking it all." He wants her to figure out he really is the one. They "go on for hours on end" and they "get along much better than her and her boyfriend." He wants to be with her so much and just really wants to love her but everytime he sees her he can't say anything "he missed his chance again."
I always miss my chance. I don't wnat ot risk it all, but my double life makes me sick.
You're right... it is a lot deeper than just "boy likes girl, girl has boyfriend". I'm in this situation (except I'm a girl). It hurts a lot and this song isn't just surface feelings. They go deeper than that.
