'Never look back, we said/How was I to know I'd miss you so?' A couple was at a mutual agreement not to dwell on their past relationship. Britney agreed, but now she regrets it because she realises how much she missed him. 'Loneliness up ahead/Emptiness behind/Where do I go?' Britney is stuck, catch 22? She sees nothing but loneliness in a future withough him and she cannot return to the past, because he is gone and they have promised to never look back.

the chorus is basically saying, even though her heart is broken, she still wants him to know that he was her first and true love, no matter what happens later on in life and he will always have a special place in her heart.

Britney pleaded him, this suggesting that he is going somewhere, to stay but he refused. His refusal was like a dark through her heart and her dreams.

This guy promised himself to somebody else. This adds a new element to the story. He may be leaving her because either he loved the other person more, or he had an arranged marriage or something to this girl.
