Our Song Lyrics

I don't why sometimes we seem so hard.
So together with a broken heart.
I try to see you but it's getting dark.

Words keep flowing out.
I wonder what they mean.
You're like al little piece of kerosene.
Girl you've always been a friend to me.

And I've been too proud sometimes.
Chasing fault lines.

Oh no. I'm gonna be there always.
After the pain has gone away.
The feelings are so strong.
This can be our song.
This can be our song.

Oh no. I'll never make you cry again.
I'm gonna set things right again.
And I won't let 'em go wrong.
This can be our song.
This can be our song.

I don't know if someone else could handle me.
I don't know what I'm supposed to be.
You're the only who really sees.
You get me.

I feel something growing deep inside of me.
What I say and what I mean
always seem to disagree.

So help me through this hard time.
Change these fault lines.

Oh no. I'm gonna be there always.
After the pain has gone away.
The feelings are so strong.
This can be our song.
This can be our song.

Oh no. I'll never make you cry again.
I'm gonna set things right again.
And I won't let 'em go wrong.
This can be our song.
This can be our song.

Oh, oh oh.
Whoa oh, oh.

Oh no. I'm gonna be there always.
After the pain has gone away.
The feelings are so strong.
This can be our song.
This can be our song.

Oh no. I'll never make you cry again.
I'm gonna set things right again.
And I won't let 'em go wrong.
This can be our song.
This can be our song.

Oh oh.
This can be our song.
This can be our song.

Oh oh.
This can be our song.
This can be our song.

Oh no. Oh no.
This can be our song.
This can be our song.

Cover art for Our Song lyrics by Matchbox Twenty

I think this song is about a guy who really cares for a girl, but their relationship seems strained every now and then. It's like they feel so distant sometimes, because he might have hurt her in the past or they might have broken up at one point, but he just wants to be with her and for things to get better. They say things they don't quite understand, and someone ends up getting hurt from their words. But even when this happens, he knows that she was always there for him and hopes that she will be in the future, too. He never wanted to admit defeat or any of his faults; he would try and conceal his flaws But now he promises that he will stand by her and always be there for her. He still patiently waits for her emotional wounds to heal, while he knows that they both still have feelings for each other. This song is like his official promise to her, and doesn’t want it to be forgotten. He then promises that he won't ever hurt her again, and how he will get their relationship back to the way it should be. He recognizes that he has flaws and that she is the only one who understands him and accepts him for the way he is, even though he doesn't completely who he is. She still gets him. His feelings of contrition and love for her swell up, to the point where he does exactly say what he means. He wants her to stay with him and help him break from his flaws. This song always reminded me of this strange friendship/relationship thing between me and this other guy; we were best friends and then dated for a short time and then we back to friends but we still had feelings for each other. Weird and confusing…..but mostly confusing.
