I can't believe there are only 3 (now 4) comments on this breathtaking song. The meaning of it is quite obvious:
The singer tries to convince a loved one to overcome the doubts she/he has about herself/himself and stop hiding behind a facade.
I love the line "Your best friend in life is not your mirror" because it's so simple and naive, yet so true.
The way Jude sings the song fits perfectly into the whole uncertainty theme of it: Very vulnerable, fragile and desperate, yet determined.
What can I say? To me this song is a masterpiece.
