Oh to add to the end, because earlier I said she didn't pursue him, maybe she did. Or maybe she just stopped talking to him because she tried for so long to get him to open up to her and take her, but he never did. so she just had to get over it by crying and smoking. I also think she does kind of have a negative feelings towards him, but still doesn't hate him. I really don't know. I see so many different meanings in these lyrics. this and the other post was made for JCruz0587! happy bday buddy, we miss you! |

I think it's pretty obvious man. "Used to know a boy He was so shy Never knew his thoughts He never knew mine" in this verse shes just basically describing a shy boy, and as the lyrics progress, we can see she is in love with him. "My troubles disappeared whenever he came close Was walking on air My feelings exposed" Whenever he is near, her troubles "disappear". Probably because she is just focused on him because she admires him so much. She forgets about all he problems and troubles and concentrates on her man! "When she says walking on air, my feelings exposed", she is basically telling you she feels like she is floating because she is so in love and happy. "My feelings exposed", pretty obvious. She's completely showing this person who she is because she loves him and wants him to TRULY know her. "oo oo My life would be a different game oo oo How lucky never we became oo oo And not so many years have passed oo oo My memory's as clear as glass" This part is a bit less clear then the prior lyrics, but I think when she says. "how lucky never we became" she is telling us that nothing ever really came of it, maybe because he was just too shy. which also leads me to suspect that he is also a very insecure person because she also says, "He never knew his thoughts". "My life would be a different game" - I think she is saying her life would had been different if she stayed with this guy. "not so many years have passed, my memory's as clear as glass" pretty obvious. shes recalling this man, though she may think he is a weak, unconfident, insecure little bitch, she still was madly in love with him and doesn't hate him. "I used to be the girl who never had a plan Was only daydreaming of only one man" In the above lyric, I think she is describing her opinion on herself when she was younger and pursuing this man. She thinks she was a naive, dumb girl because she was so obsessed with this one man. "Smoking in the room Crying over you Walking on air into the blue" In this lyric, either he dumped her, or maybe she dumped him because she felt he wasn't right for her even though he loved him and they had history. Of course she would cry, anyone would. The "smoking in the room" lyric could be a reference to smoking weed or some drug to relieve some pain, which is why she says shes "walking on air, into the blue". The sky is blue and it's also high. it is the sky! And when you smoke, you get high! I don't know.. just what I think. Thanks for reading my novel. :) |
