I think gjames interpretation fits things best otherwise the guy singing the song is an emotionally stunted twit who doesn't really know what love is. For those who favor the tragic lover dissed by his soulmate or one true love... If you haven't lived through to the end of a relationship you can put that person on a pedestal and feed those emotions on an idealized version of the "true love" who can never be replaced. It's crap. People are different so we love each differently no matter how else we might think. I just came out of a loooong relationship that I ended and have been so burned I didn't want to love again. I'm "hanging" with someone who just did the same thing. Although he's told me many times that he loves me and like the other person earlier he sings me love songs, I, for the first time in my life, couldn't say those words. Not that they weren't true, just that they made me vulnerable for the same hurt I just had and it scared me that he might try to make this a relationship. I've since told him I love him too but we both still insist, at least at this point, that we are not "in love" with each other and not working towards any relationship except as companions, especially since neither of us have healed. So technically it could be, I want you, I need you, but the I love you is something I'm withholding or not saying to protect myself from so much pain... at least for now. (denial is not just a river in Egypt, LOL) |

The meaning suggested about cheating, why would that be the only interpretation? Has the writer expressed it in an interview? It could also mean that they left a relationship they thought was "the one" that didn't end up being that way and now with this person it is working in a way that others never did. Also, even though it's recorded with a guy singing it, there is no gender to the lyrics so it can go either way. It's an amazing song regardless of what the original meaning was. I'd never heard of this song until this morning when my computer spontaneously started playing it when there were no audio programs running and no web pages with it. There were no files that had any portion of it in it on my computer. The really ironic/spooky part is since last night I'd been struggling with an issue that this song fits perfectly. |
