Additional thoughts to my original comment: I also think while they know they hurt the other person, they waited for them to make contact to somehow make it right (by waiting by the phone). During this time, the light of the city had teased them away from who/what they cared about but they now realize that the city was just show, and not real or right for them. But, it's too late now and they are alone. |

I think this song is about loss and not knowing how to fix things. Thus, not being able to remember what even went wrong. They know they had been happy and then it was gone. They've learned to deal with it, by lightening their troubled heart by walking away (lightening their load) and moving on, even if they have no where to go and probably didn't want to. People lose things they care about, and don't always know how to make it right, and they think it's too hard, so rather than trying to make things right, most of the world just move on, even with so many fish in the sea, or people around them, they feel alone from their losses. They have known happiness thus, finding a special someone like finding a needle in the hay or a pearl in the snow and sunshine, but somehow they lost what they had. While others are right there around them, they still feel completely alone. Thus, the way of the world, and the world may never know, how to fix such realities. |
