Misunderstanding Lyrics
He could have just checked her Facebook status... Oh, that's right, Zuckerberg wasn't alive back then.
This song is about being stood up for a date. I think its sung in a chronological order. The first verse is initial feeling: 'Maybe she's just running late'
Then "But you could've called to let me know I checked your number twice, don't understand it So I went home" Is the point where he realizes that the girl isnt going to show up.
Most Obviously however: "That's why I don't know why You didn't show up that night"
This an awesome 80's song with a kind of doo-wop sound. Obviously the song's about the heartbreak and pain some experiences when the person they love and they think they love in return goes out and cheats on him/her.
about facing the truth. when love is gone..
Sometimes, even when you can see the evidence right before your eyes, you can still find a way to deny it's over.
There must be some misunderstanding - because I can't really be seeing her standing me up, cheating on me, and preparing to leave...
I'm happy for you and sad for me. Didn't know I had so many tears in this body. Hoping this is making you happy so this pain will be worth it. So strange not having you even with the limits. Of course wishiing the last year could have worked out the way we hoped. I also wish I could sleep, day 3 with 2 hour or less. A billion million kisses would not have been enough. As always I pray for the very best of everything for you. And, YES, I love you, then, now and always.
So sad to read :( I hope things are better for you now!!

Obviously about a guy whose relationship is over, but he's in denial for a while. At first I don't think he knew that it was over but in the end he drives by her house and realizes there is someone else now.
When I hear the song and read the lyrics, I'm not so sure there ever was a relationship. Kind of sounds like the singer had a crush on a woman that he had regular contact with (maybe they ran into each other quite a bit, lived in the same neighborhood, etc.). Over time he built up a relationship in his mind. At some point he worked up the nerve to ask her out and she said yes to be nice or to get rid of him. She really wasn't in to him and may have even been creeped out a bit. At that point he continues to stalk her.
@ownz100635 I get what you are saying but I don't think they are going to those places together. That's what I mean when I said, "maybe they run into each other..." Either they just happen to run into each other at places (e.g. the bank, a deli on the corner, etc.) he builds those events up into them going to those places together. So in the song when he says, "I went to the places that we always go" he's referring to the bank, the deli, etc. I may be wrong but every time I hear the...

Didn't you notice that near the end the lyrics say:
Still don't believe it He was just leaving
I think this song is about attraction between a guy and another guy (he and not she was leaving), but now one of them thinks there must have been a misunderstanding...
@miketorello Interesting viewpoint but the previous line explains that:

The singer drove to her place only to see some other guy leaving her home.

Every time I hear it I get the impression that it is a song told from a stalker's perspective. If not a stalker then from the perspective of a person infatuated with the other one.
@Chunga I have to agree with you there. I said pretty much the same thing a little further down. This is all a relationship that he's created in his mind.
