Just Asking Everyone?

Isn't this song maybe about 2 people, the guy and the girl(the singers), singing to each other. First the guy sings:

Please don't say we're done When I'm not finished I could give so much more Make you feel, like never before Welcome, they said welcome to the floor

(this is the first moment when they break up, apparently the girl decides so, but the guy doesn't aggree and believes to have much more to give)

(then after sometime) the girl sings:

It's been a while And you've found someone better But I've been waiting too long to give this up The more I see, I understand But sometimes, I still need you

(now after sometime the guy found someone else, and the girl, who was always unsure, needs him, maybe jealousy triggered it.)(Even though the third line seams inconsistent and makes it hard to follow this concept)

the girl sings again:

And I was struggling to get in Left waiting outside your door I was sure You'd give me more

(now the girl looking for the guy, chasing him, and now she is sure that he was right and he could give more)

then the guy sings:

No need to come to me When I can make it all the way to you You made it clear You weren't near Near enough for me

(no need to come to me, obviously its too late, and he says i can come all the way too you if i wanted too again, but your coldness and actions pushed me away long time ago and now its too late)

then they both sing:

Heart skipped a beat And when I caught it you were out of reach But I'm sure, I'm sure You've heard it before

(both know that timing killed everything, they started together, then she wasn't sure, and her action and coldness pushed the guy away, and now that she wants him, he doesn't want her anymore)

Yea I was thinking the same

that interpretation makes so much sense.... it makes me cry. if there's some love left, why can't people just stay together..can't stand this.

This. Everyone should stop interpreting and go home.
