Lyric discussion by sisinki 

Cover art for Before Today lyrics by Everything but the Girl

it´s clearly about relationship falling apart. She has a guy who doesn´t seem to care much about her and she´s unhappy with that. (I don't want the phone that never rings) But there is still a chance to save that relationship and that´s what she´s trying to say in this song.

By the way, the lyrics doesn´t start right... it starts with "I thought that it will stay that way.... before today"

  • which means something had changed and she no longer can handle it
