Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
When you look and find
You('ve) lost your place
To the girl behind
With the honest face
Ain't that the way.
And your heroes
They pass by on broken feet
With the girls they find
Between the roof and street
On a thin escape
And I can't explain where the blood goes
And I can't explain cause I don't know
It finds a way
And the wise, they talk of honesty
While the boats, they keep pointing
Always set for sea
And a fool's escape
And there's a note, I found
Reminding me, not to wait
That you'd come and look for me
And not to wait
And I can't explain where the love goes
And I can't explain cause I don't know
It finds a way
Ohhhh, ooooh, ooooh
You('ve) lost your place
To the girl behind
With the honest face
Ain't that the way.
And your heroes
They pass by on broken feet
With the girls they find
Between the roof and street
On a thin escape
And I can't explain where the blood goes
And I can't explain cause I don't know
It finds a way
And the wise, they talk of honesty
While the boats, they keep pointing
Always set for sea
And a fool's escape
And there's a note, I found
Reminding me, not to wait
That you'd come and look for me
And not to wait
And I can't explain where the love goes
And I can't explain cause I don't know
It finds a way
Ohhhh, ooooh, ooooh

this again is another sing-along anthem by the frames, even tho its a quite sad & quiet song. the "ohhhh, ooooh" bit is very high pitched & different to the quietly spoken/softly sung verses. the lyrics are a bit vague, just seems like a typical frames song......"i cant explain where the love goes..cos i dont know" beautiful
Don't diss this, but am I the only one reminded of Harry Potter, here?! Seriously. Harry totally lost his role within the trio to Hermione (with the honest face) in the last two books. All his heroes left him. The 'wise' men, that is the people with authority (Dumbledore and Scrimgoeur- however the frick you spell his name), they were all defeated, and made their escape, leaving him to deal with the burden. Then the insignificance of blood purity to him, even though that's what the whole war is about... and don't even get me started on that note!
Okay, I'm a nerd. But please say so if you happen to agree!
