It seems to be about either a one night stand or some brief affair where both parties knew it wouldn't go any further. ("No talk of love between us...no talk of tears and pain") While at one time they may have had things in common, now both have separate lives and interests. ("You've got new friend in new pools...") I gotta agree with the previous comment, this is a great song that I never get tired of hearing. The two local rock radio stations in my town used to play this song all the time back then. In high school I used to play the piano solo all the time in music class to impress the chicks. |

Clearly the song is about some emotionally empty young woman who loves to receive attention from a large variety of men and enjoys toying with their affections. Since she's very attractive, there's always a steady stream of guys ready to compete for her ("Stand in line, 'cause one by one they march in time") and she always does her part to encourage them. (''She executes her role") As she gets older she desires a more stable lifestyle, but notices that the quality and number of sexual/romantic partners is not what it once was due to her reputation. ("As the cavalcade begins to thin, do you stop and look around?") While there's still a few guys she can take to bed, there aren't any to have a meaningful relationship with. ("Free to choose but not to win...") In the end she's sad and alone. ("...now you're the victim of your game. Through your fingers watch them slip...") THE END. :( |
