I was a bit distracted by the fact that in the lyrics above, not every saying is quoted... but it's a complete conversation between a man and a woman, who have met and have had dinner at a restaurant together... they know each other from the past or have been lovers one day.
She shows she's less stronger than she has been, that she's not herself on this day:
"and there was a day when i would've said something like "hey dude i could buy and sell this place so kiss it" ".
For I'm not English by nature I can't really figure out what things like "I was all pigtails and cords".
I heard this song some days ago by going through my Rock am Ring recordings... and first I thought she was talking to some strange man who she met outside the hospital while his wife was ill; then I thought she even knew the guy; then I misheard it and thought she met God somewhere and he told her about her life ;) ... and now I read the actual lyrics and I still don't get it.
One thing that's clear: it's so full of emotions, and the ways she sings it; she almost speaks throughout the whole song but the tones are so melodic with a good vibration in it, that she hardly needs any instruments to accompany that voice.
