I thought so too, but then I looked at the lyrics carefully and the line "I'm forever changed by someone I never knew". That to me just told me that this has to be about a child. Whether she gave it up for adoption or had an abortion, I'm not sure. But, that line just made me believe that this is in fact not about a romantic love. |

The line "saying you should be with me instead" could also imply that instead of being with the mother, the child is with Death. That's the way, I took it. But whatever the truth is, you're right. This is an incredible song and one I love listening to over and over |

I don't think it sounds upbeat at all. I hear the chords being played very strongly on all the instruments. Her voice is pretty neutral throughout the song, as if she doesn't know what to make her of her decision--just like the lyrics suggest. This was a very difficult decision for her and after a decade, she's still unsure of her feelings towards it. The chords that are being played very strongly, add to the subject. This song is about something very powerful, I don't think it's upbeat at all. Her voice is not at all happy-sounding. And the steel-guitar sounds a bit mournful, in my opinion. |
