Cover art for She Don't Want Nobody Near lyrics by Counting Crows

It's about being all alone and to want someone in your life. Then you get someone and you're used to that they always leave so you get surprised when somebody decides to stay and suddenly there's a lot of pressure on you 'cause it's hard to make a relationship work. And so you start missing that loneliness of yours and you make up excuses to not be with that person all the time. It's like you're in love or addicted to the loneliness and that's really hard and dangerous too.
