Alright, so. This song is about a woman who broke up with a man because she didn't love him This is set up in the first verse: "Maybe I'm a crook for stealing your heart away" She stole his heart, they fell in love. "And maybe I'm a crook for not caring for it" She threw his heart away when she left him. "And maybe I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad person/Well baby, I know" She acknowledges that she hurt him. In the second verse, she realizes she'll never get to touch or hold him again like they did when they were lovers. "And these fingertips, they'll never run through your skin Those bright blue eyes can only meet mine across a room Filled with people that are less important than you" "Filled with people less important that you" is said with a sense of frustration and longing, but not in a 'the world is keeping us apart' way. Rather, her frustration stems from her inability to share his love. See the chorus? "Because you love, love, love when you know I can't love You love, love, love when you know I can't love You love, love, love when you know I can't love," With each repeat, she grows more frustrated. She is angry at him for loving her so much, and she is angry at herself for feeling nothing towards him. "So I think it's best we both forget before we dwell on it The way you held me so tight all through the night 'til it was near morning" Again, she reminisces on the time they shared and his unfaltering love for her. "Because you love, love, love when you know I can't love You love, love, love when you know I can't love You love, love, love when you know I can't love, you" the last chorus is the highest vocal point of the song. She reaches the tip of her frustration. The outro is a kind of catharsis. Imagine seeing your ex at a party on the other side of the room. They stare up at you, and you share a fleeting moment of longing. You can feel a tug in the pit of your stomach. I imagine this song to happen in such a moment. But I digress. |

No, it's about a relationship that fell apart because the woman didn't love the man. The man, on the other hand, was really invested and in love. When she ended the relationship, she broke his heart. |
