This song carries significant personal meanings for me, so I will explain it from my perspective. When I first heard this, it was exactly what was going on to me at the time. I'm 23 currently, and I about a year ago I broke up with this girl that I had dated since I was 17. However, we went to different schools and she lived 150 miles away. We both started carrers. It took me 3 months to realize what I had left behind, but it was too late for what ever reason. I always used to think she loved me more, always sending me cards, and getting upset if she couldn't see me while I merely took her for granted. That's exactly what I think this song is about. It was easy when we were younger, and then we could put it back together, but I let the world tear us apart and now it's too late . I tried to get her back for months, but she would never commit (it was there if you ever wanted it). Anyday I expected her to come back, but I was disappointed everytime (Every time you were expecting to reach out and forgive this, I was hardened by the look upon your face). I wanted to start over (can we begin again?), but she "closed the door and said goodbye for good". I don't know what it is that changes people in a relatively short time from the person they would have done anything for to just another guy, but be careful when you pull the trigger on your relationship because it happens. Not everyone gets a second chance. I couldn't have written a better song to describe what happened to us in a 1,000 years. Thanks Pete. |
