The song is about a woman who broke up with a guy, and is ready to see the world through fresh eyes (a life not involving him). She knows it will take time to get him out of her head, but she wants to try and move on from the past.
When she sees him, she is always reminded of times they had together. This makes her wonder if she made the right decision because it musters up the old feelings again. Because of this she tries to avoid seeing him in the hope the feelings will stay at bay.
She knows she misses him being there – “When I scream there’s no reply, When I reach out there’s nothing to find, When I sleep I break down and cry” but she isn’t sure whether to go back to him or try to move on without him.
