I Will Never Be the Same

this dude(or chick however u look at it) was dating this girl who was the wild one in school. went from boy to boy and what not and she never really let him in which was ashame because he loved her. but finally she left him and he will never be the same without her

This song was written way before Yes I Am. It was used on the movie Welcome Home Roxy Carmichael. also melissa provided a song Don't Look At Me which is really good

To me this is a song of Love and Trust. Trust is formed by situations and talking about our past and our deep feelings. I was in a relationship with a much younger woman that had a hard past. She protected her past by not talking about it or lying about it to make it seem not so bad. But it was, and the reluctance is for us not to be open and vulnerable to the other. Because they can always say goodbye. For me this song was about the woman I was with. She protected her past so she would not become open and vulnerable. However, this does not build trust but mistrust. The Demons in our head are the unresolved issues of our past. Sharing the burden with our love ones helps lift this burden. But if the past is so bad, then we are left with the other persons decision if they want to continue the relationship or not. This can be a basic trust situation to build on or a deal breaker. I think Melissa sings about it being a deal breaker. The other person was not willing to take a chance, so she ran away, still fighting her Demons. Mine did.

I guess I look at this completely different. the way I see it, a women was in love with another woman, but the other woman was ashamed of what they were doing. she thought being gay was a sin and so she left in the middle of the night.
