For me, this song... means a lot. There was this girl that I liked a lot -- loved, even. I loved her a lot. I followed her around as a 'friend' for a little more than a year, then I finally decided to take a step and tell her I was in love with her. Well, she had a boyfriend and everything between the two of us began to break down and withered into nothing. I went into it thinking, 'We're not getting any younger,' and 'All I've got to lose is her,' but now I feel old and foolish and I really have lost her completely.

So who am I to her, now? In all the ways Billy describes, just what does it make me? She was never meant to belong to me.

@Renzoku Same here, I met her on the internet and I felt deeply in loved when we met in person, and since that point the relationship fall apart till she didnt' want to talk to me anymore....
