I have always liked this song, for very personal reasons.

I agree with amm4sf and maymyheart. From my perspective it's about being left. There are people who love too much and stay, and there are people who are satisfied with a one-night stand and the excitement of moving on from there to someone new.

I am one of those who stays and holds on, and I know far too many of the lucky ones who can quickly move on and leave behind.
