I'm torn on this. Evidently, from reading here for a few days, I am completely off on CC songs...but I agree that it's about a relationship where one of the people is more attached than the other, i.e. "I tell you things to make you stay"

However, the 3rd verse throws me off "we have turned into the worse kind of people...so unkind" and then the apology about the feelings for this person. (Cheating?? An Affair?? What????)

Don't know. I'm stumped. But I love love love how he sings that line "Oh apologies, no apologies, this apology doesn't describe the way it feels to feel for you" It just kills me.
