Talk To Her Lyrics
talk to her, dont leave her behind
you shut her out for too long
i know, cause ive seen her cry
if you keep her down she'll get up and move on
wake up its time
open your eyes
you've got to let her know
stop wasting time
make up your mind
love her or let her go
talk to her, you've done something wrong
we've all got something to hide
but dont turn your back for too long
there'll always be somebody waiting in line
i could be all that she wants
got a heart, got a home, got a hand for her to hold
talk to her, theres something you'll find
with all this pain that you caused
you'll be the loser this time
and i'll be the one with the girl that you lost
believes me shes leaving
and i'll be the one, look what you lost
you shut her out for too long
i know, cause ive seen her cry
if you keep her down she'll get up and move on
open your eyes
you've got to let her know
stop wasting time
make up your mind
love her or let her go
we've all got something to hide
but dont turn your back for too long
there'll always be somebody waiting in line
got a heart, got a home, got a hand for her to hold
with all this pain that you caused
you'll be the loser this time
and i'll be the one with the girl that you lost
and i'll be the one, look what you lost

This song perfectly describes my relationship with a best male friend, from a 3rd person perspective. Stop wasting time, make up your mind, love her or let her go, Kyle.

I can relate to this song. Its about a person who is torn between boy and girl. He loves the girl but she is in relationship with someone other. -- In my case I was the one and we are together now :)
I adore this song, the lyrics may be simple but it conveys a story that many of us may face. Simply put this song is the story of a man that doesn’t really know what he is looking for. His (possible) girlfriend is stuck in between his indecisiveness. The man had to open his eyes up to this situation, and make up his mind weather nor not to bring on this relationship or end it. There will always be something with an eye on his girl and if he leaves this decision to be made for too long, she is going to end up leaving him.
This song totally relates to me :(
Probably the best song on the album too.
heard this song a bunch of times. it wasnt til my girl friend left me for another guy til I really listened to it tho. ~sigh~
Its like her new bf is singing it to me. had to skip it for a while until those feelings passed.
Break ups are hard. so many songs have new meaning. Even had a hard time with DMB cuz it was 'our' band. saw 5 of their concerts in a year while together. sad.
I agree with ChaoticLingo on the meaning of the song except for one thing: I think the persona is not the indecisive man but rather another man who is "waiting" for the woman. Note the following lyrics:
"i could be all that she wants"
"believes me shes leaving and i'll be the one, look what you lost"
In light of these lines, it seems as if there is a waiting man who is warning the current boyfriend that he needs to "Talk To Her" wuick before he steps up and takes her.
This song is about me. I was in a relationship for over three years, and the last year of that relationship consisted of me waiting around while he had doubts about me. We broke up, but he still thinks I'm waiting around for him. I'm going to have to send him these lyrics one day.
I agree that this is from the perspective of a guy watching this relationship.
lol this is my song now. some chick i like is having some bf trouble. hes a good guy but hes just kinda messin up right now. so he better shape up or she could be mine lol

For me this song can mean only one thing. Im still fascinated by what others think it is though.
I feel that its about a friend warning you that they need to look at their relationship with a girl. the girl must be special because there is alot of focus on her.
"talk to her, dont leave her behind you shut her out for too long i know, cause ive seen her cry if you keep her down she'll get up and move on"
i feel that this is the friend explaining that you cant be stupid about this relationship. they are stating that she wont stay with someone who treats her this bad.
"wake up its time open your eyes you've got to let her know stop wasting time make up your mind love her or let her go"
Now the chorus is the friend shaking you and making sure you hear them. they are telling you that its been too long since you've shown her affection. they are telling you to show her how much you love her or just end it and move on instead of wasting her time.
"talk to her, you've done something wrong we've all got something to hide but dont turn your back for too long there'll always be somebody waiting in line"
Now they are being more calm and saying she's not the one doing wrong its you. dont reject her cos there will always be someone waiting to steal her away from you.
"i could be all that she wants got a heart, got a home, got a hand for her to hold"
the friend realises its not getting through to you and tries using scare tactics. they say if you dont do something they might make a move.
"talk to her, theres something you'll find with all this pain that you caused you'll be the loser this time and i'll be the one with the girl that you lost"
now the friend is saying you caused her so much pain but you'll be the one who will lose out the most. they will take her from you if you dont shape up and treat her right.
"believe me shes leaving and i'll be the one, look what you lost"
the friend is almost furious at this point and growling out that no matter what you say she is leaving and they will be the one who she'll leave you for. then maybe you'll see how great you had it with her.
thats my view. :)
