I just recently heard this song for the first time and it brought me to tears. I could not believe the words - they were the story of my life. I spent 14 years with my husband and we had finally had our first child, I was happier than I had been in my entire life. Then came this other woman who made the choice to cheat on her husband with a married man (my husband). They had this affair and I caught him cheating on me and our baby was just turning one. When I confronted him, he told me that he was leaving for this other woman that he fell in love with. I begged him to end it and work on our marriage with counseling, I loved him with everything I had. I went to the woman and begged her to leave my husband alone that she could have any other single man but to please leave my husband alone. I couldn't imagine life without him. She told me that she was sorry but she loved my husband and I couldn't stop this from happening. I was devastated, but I picked up the pieces of my life and moved on. Now looking back - how stupid I was to beg him to be with me, I am thankful that she took that cheat out of my life. I met a wonderful man and I couldn't be happier. Her on the other hand is living the life of hell, he has already been caught cheating on her. Karma!!!
@Thankful The anguish of the song is when she says "just because you can," because he is already gone and she cannot face it until her soul grows. My old Aunt spent he life in Eloise after her husband left her like that. And yes, those who do not love honestly cannot eve trust in love, and loves that start in affairs can never have the trust required to be entrusted with the heart and sometimes soul of another. One difference in your case is at least they thought it was love, and so are less responsible, whereas Joline does...

@Thankful Oh yea, and, it is not a deficiency that she can never love again- that is true love. True love is for the one beloved, while the appetite is for many, but love cannot obligate love in return. But infidelity means they do not love you- that's why it hurts so badly.
