Lyric discussion by Daisy13 

In a nutshell, you loved someone in your past dearly, you're not with them because of the mistakes you've made, you tell them you love them but totally understand their unwillingness to get back together, so all you can do is love them, and eventually pretend you're over them.

It's about a lost cause. A lament on the one that got away...

daisy that is the message this song gives to me its the the feelings that i am going throw and have been for some time. i was with this guy for almost 2 years we were so in love and we did everything together. he got me a puppy before he went away for college. we had plans to get married and everything, there was nothing this guy wont not do for me. and i messed it up i got drunk and high for the first time and we got into a fight over at his school and i broke...

@Daisy13 I agree as well. I had a long time relationship that was never really a relationship that never really had a proper chance because we were both scared and would unmeaningly hurt each other but were great friends. He is the one that got away…even though I am married I will always love him too and I will not make the same mistakes that I made with respects to him.

@Daisy13 Does the white flag above the door symbolize I won't surrender because I still love you or I won't surrender by letting you know I still love you?
