I thought this song was a bit boring when I first heard it but once I'd heard it a few times and thought about it, I loved it. I imagine it to be about having everything you really ever wanted, but it means they've had to give up somebody they love. So right now they love their life and everything about it, except the fact that this one person is missing from it. Maybe they are kind of putting on an act, sleeping around etc but it doesn't really satisfy them becuase this person who they carry a torch for.So desperately wanting to get on with this wonderful life you have without thinking of them. Ok, so I'm talking rubbish but I think the mystery of what it is really about it why I like the song so much! It gives me a lot to think about when I hear it and I can have my own interpretation of it . Does it really matter it's not the same meaning as the group intended when they wrote it?
