My favourite b-side by far. Tom says so much in so few words. When you meet someone really special, someone who is so kind and selfless and loyal that you feel like they're too good for you. You almost adore them like a deity, as if they were miles above you. I've had a couple of friends like that, and I respected them so much that when I thought of all the times I had been mean or selfish while they were always ready to give you a hand I realized that they were much better people than I was, and it made me feel worthless in comparision. But it's not envy at all. More like adoration, as I said. And you want to tell them how much they mean to you, to tell them that you'd do anything for them, but you never get the chance.
I'm not sure if I'm making any sense. But that's the way I feel when I hear the song.
