Last Place You Look Lyrics

The grass is always greener,
as I'm sure that you've found.
If I find my way back on the last leg of this trip,
I'm betting I'm finding you there.
As long as it's constantly changing.
As long as it's constantly sound.
If there's no sense of impending danger,
there's no sense in hanging around for the winter.
If I'm not going to be in your arms around me...
What have I got if you're there?
We'll be home in December.
The leaves don't fall from the trees
as long as you remember you are always with me.
It's not my place to find it,
not something that I get to choose.
Don't be scared
'cause you're not something I'm willing to lose.
I'll bet you find it in the last place you look.

this is one of the many guk songs that means a lot to me. i relate it a lot to my life right now. i take the song as saying something about still being in love with a former girlfriend/boyfriend but they wont give you the time of day right now. but you know deep down in your heart... that they'll come back to you. and that everything will be ok. it just might take some time... but this person will come to you.. and find love in the last place they look (you). you've just got to wait it out... and wait for them to choose... because its not up to you.

to me this song doesnt sing about a lost lover, but a lost friend. thats the beauty about music.. it has so many meanings depending on you alone. 'the grass is always greener' someone once quoted this song to me.. and its all too true that she is someone that im not willing to lose.. oh the passion buring.

the first couple lines suggest that the person who it addressed to has had their own life experiences and realized that everything that is not yours seems better than what you have. He goes on to say that he's hoping that that person is at the end of his "trip" which could be taken as his wife at the end of the road. He just wants to express that he has to discover other things now, but he loves the person and will be back to see if it works out, if it's meant to be.
