This is what Glen says at the beginning of another live version, much like what Baizer posted:

"This song is about...em...em...waking up in under a bush in your ex-girlfirends garden....this is a song aobut getting drunk and forgetting that you don't go out with her anymore...forgetting that she doesn't love you anymore..so...em..so...ah...this is about...(he becomes stuck on his words and the audience laugh)...needing, this is about being, wanting too much, wanting to be close to someone too much...wanting to know where they are all the time and when they're going out you're like...where are you going? or what time will you be back? or i'll come with you. and its about trying to do the right thing, trying to withdraw so that you don't love so much, trying to go...ok. and in doing so, something inside you just dies, and you turn off...and then, and like all things in life she falls in love with you and you don't care. and its a song of hope."

Ah I long to see them again, seeing them live is like being massaged by angels. Unlike so many of us Irish, the Frames have the courage to express what they feel, they epitomise the purity and fearlessness of the Irish that, over time, has been lost in so many of us. Not afraid to let their guard down, or be vulnerable...they will always remind me of home.
