Ohkay this song has a lot within it, but I'm going to try and sum it up.
It's a song about two people, they were wonderful friends as children and made those promises that well always be friends, I'll never leave you, etc. etc. I'm sure we all know what thats about.
Anyways, time goes on, and as they grow out of childhood, they fall in love. However, the other (the one not singing, prolly girl) saw that this would not last, "You saw us always clearer than me
how we were never meant to be"
And so, of course, it ended
"I was unable to cope with what you said
Sometimes we need to be cruel to be kind"
And he ask, if these feelings he had were real or, just a "Sham and a lie (shamandalie)"
As time went by the many memories they had together faded and died, but he still missed them, hence why he writes this down.
But then it also says "Love denied meant the friendship would die
Now I have seen the light"
I think that that makes him realize, that without love, the friendship would die.
Basically meaning, if they denied love and stayed "friends" the friendship would die. As the guy saw it
Yet as the woman saw it They were never meant to be.
So perhaps this is just a doomed tragedy?
then at the end
"See the world with my wide open eyes"
Wanting to see everything clearly, fully understand the reasons and why everythings happening.
"Can you forgive me? The love got better off me"
Asking for forgiveness for the mistakes made when they were lovers.
That's what I get from the song, this is a really beautiful song and it means a lot to me, and I could go into much greater detail but I'm too lazy to type all that out. So I tried to sum it up...
