"You must be somewhere in London You must be loving' your life in the rain You must be somewhere in London Walking Abbey Lane" - I interpret this song as being about a guy from LA falling in love with a girl from London, England. They had a great time, together in the US, he felt genuine affection for her whether it was mutual or not we don't know. But either way, she is now living her life back in England. "Famous angels never come through England England gets the ones you never need" - This suggests that no one appreciates her back in England which is why she's still single or always heartbroken. That England gets the angels they never need and take for granted. "Put an ocean and a river between everybody else Between everything, yourself and home Put and ocean and a river Between everything, yourself and home" - I think this means she always has her guard up, no one can get in close. Perhaps she's been hurt before. Either way, he imagines her walking the streets of London in the rain in all her beauty and sadness. "Afraid of the house, stay the night with the sinners Afraid of the house, stay the night with the sinners Afraid of the house, 'cause they're desperate to entertain" - The house being the man she left in the US and the sinners are the people of London. She is afraid of the house because, maybe things got too real and the house came on too strongly. Either way she's gone back to a place where she's comfortable. This song might have absolutely nothing to do with what I just said; all I know is that I just explained something based on an experience I once had. That girl's name is Nav. And I do hope she's still walking the streets of London, because so am I. Maybe we'll bump into each other again one day. |

There's no ambiguous meaning to this song. The lyrics speak for themselves, it's quite literally a break up song in every sense of the word. Neither party wants to continue the relationship further. It's a goodbye song marking the end of their relationship. But everyone can 'see their own story in this song'... |

| Yep, girls are master manipulaters of a man's emotions lol. The one that got away, I think about her every day, but I bet she hasn't given me a second thought since we last saw each other. But life goes on... | |

| That's a very special situation you've got there. I believe in soul mates, but I thnk its possible to still lead a normal happy life with someone other than your soulmate. But if you two still have feelings for one another, then if it doesn't hurt anyone else, go for it. | |
