this song is pretty easy to understand... he's telling his girlfriend to not give up on them because the relationship will just get better with time... "love isn't perfect, even diamonds start out as coal." it's a beautiful metaphor. i love it.

and for those of you who think it isn't a good line, you don't know what you are talking about... brandon uses perfect metaphors... and this just like the others is a perfect metaphor... it makes perfect sense.
