It's hard to believe no one has commented on this song yet. This song is so full of emotions, it's sad at times but it's also so full of yearning and is very hopeful of love.

It's about lovers and I think they have had many problems which got them to the part where they thought that "hey, i don't think we can't work this out anymore."

There are people who want them apart and a lot of pressure and obstacles thrown in from outside parties. They got to the part where they are thinking of giving up the relationship, tired of defending and upholding what they have.

Somehow along the way they got distracted from what they were really about. People tell them things like what his or her partner lacks (not spending enough time with you, prioritizing career over you, etc) and somehow they got swayed by these suggestions from people and started thinking the same. Now all they see are faults. Hence, the making-up-for-it lines: "What if I took my time to love you? What if I put no one above you? What if I did the things That really mattered? What if I ran through Hoops of disaster?"

But after some time, one of them realizes that they shouldn't give up their relationship and the heck with everyone who wants them apart. Because really at the end of the day, it's just between the two of you.

He wants them to make it, "I'll take the rivers rise I'll take the happy times I'll take the moments of disaster."

He reminds them both of the things that should count, "What about love? What about feeling? What about all the things that make life worth living? What about faith? What about trust? And tell me baby...what about us?"

This reminds me of the one I used to love...The contents of the song is just about how our life was when we were together and how it ended bitterly. Soon he realized that we should not separate but its already too late.....Its just dificult to love someone you really cant have no matter how you try...sad but true:(
