When It Was Over

I love these lines: "He said I always knew you loved me eventhough I'd broken your heart I always knew there'd be a place for me to make a brand new start." Sometimes it feels like God breaks my heart because I don't understand why some things happen and I am sad and I grieve and I doubt Him and question my love for Him, but as long as HE knows I still love Him... as long as HE knows there can be a new start... that, to me, is "a love that never fails".

Great songm, great lyrics, and I really think this song it is not necesarily reffering to God...the rest is up to you...

This is my interpretation. I was thinking that a couple hit a dead end in their relationship. She took a nose dive and he let her go rather than take responsibility for her actions. She later realized what she needed to do to "get right". He may have let her go but he didn't give up on her. He had faith in her and mercy on her for she probably didn't really know what she was doing at the time. Life was cloudy and she got lost. His love was unconditional and he wants to fight for them, which is why I think Sara wrote this:

"When it was over and they could talk about it They were sitting on the couch She said what on earth made you stay here When you finally figured out what I was all about He said I always knew you'd do the right thing Even though it might take some time She said, Yeah, I felt that and that's probably what saved my life"

I was thinking what saved her life was him letting her go. Perhaps she went away on her own somewhere and had a lot of time to think about things. Perhaps she went to jail, rehab, home, or somewhere else. It was what she needed to appreciate him and the better things in life.

I was also thinking that love is wonderful. Grace is amazing. God is love. There's nothing more greater than to love and be loved in return.

Okay, so I wrote two interpretations. I think this song is genius, because the first time I did not catch that they both made mistakes. Both forgave the other. It’s not about him being wrong or her being wrong. All are sinners and neither should really judge because we all need to be loved. We all give up at some point in our lives even many times. We all need to be reminded to keep a positive attitude.
