She calls me from the cold-the girl that left him comes back to him when her life has gone sour
Just when I was low, feeling short of stable-still when he misses her, having no stability in life
And all that she intends-her true intentions
And all she keeps inside isn't on the label-can't be seen because she hides them
She says she's ashamed-says she's ashamed of how things ended.
Can she take me for awhile-she wants to be in his life again
Can I be a friend, we'll forget the past-at the least a friend, and can they forget the past?
Or maybe I'm not able-but he's not sure if he can foget how she was to him
And I break at the bend-and he "breaks" from trying to bend himself from the person he is to the one she wants him to be
We're here and now, will we ever be again-she's back now, will they ever have a second chance?
'Cause I have found-he's realized
All that shimmers in this world is sure to fade-anything that is good, will never stay that way
Away again-ever
She dreams a champagne dream-she dreams a perfect life
Strawberry surprise, pink linen on white paper-""
Lavender and cream-""
Fields of butterflies, reality escapes her-everything she believes, is not true
She says that love is for fools that fall behind,-this line confuses me..ha
And I'm somewhere between-he's somewhere in between the love triangle
Never really know-he never knows
A killer from a savior-the girl is there to save him or ruin him more
'Til I break at the bend-and breaks again
We're here and now, will we ever be again-same
'Cause I have found-same
All that shimmers in this world is sure to fade
Away again-same
It's too far away for me to hold
Too far away....-she's been gone for so long that the love he once had fornher is to far for him to get back
It's too far away for me to hold
Too far away....
It's too far away for me to hold
Too far away....
It's too far away for me to hold
Too far away....
It's too far away for me to hold
Too far away....
It's too far away for me to hold
Too far away....
Guess I'll let it go.... -so even though he knows he loves her, he has to give her up because she will never be the girl he wants
^^Perfect interpretation, but that line about "love is for only fools that fall behind" means that she's having fun and love isn't in the equation. She just wants to have fun and not worry about love yet, but he's behind in her seek for enjoyment.

@chilimak20 Your exactly right! I've a been rock musician/songwriter since the late 80's. It's basically a break up song in different packaging. He's saying, they were once together, she calls him out of the blue just when his heart was healing & thought she might restart their relationship & is talking about marriage etc. He's at the point where he's isn't quite over her & unfortunately vulnerable enough to take her back regardless of how the relationship ended.
He's pretty sure that if he takes her back, she'll break his heart again. So he's thinking out loud, "do I try...

Seems we've all been there. Music is timeless & regardless what the writer intended, we all have our interpretations of songs. That's the beauty of music....
