I'm surprised nobody has commented on this song. Maybe it's because the lyrics are fairly straight forward. Anyway, it may be easy to figure out, but i love lyric. I really identified with it. I've had my heart broken a few times, and I felt the same way. In the weeks and months after I'd drive by a place or a sign that she had pointed at once years ago, and it would just make me so sad...and all it really is is a street sign! The last chorus he tries to convey this fact (and trick himself into believing) by changing "precious places" and "special things" to "stupid places" and "silly things". I just love that.
