A friend told me a story about this song but I don't know how true it is but ill share it anyway. She told me the song was the true story about a man who wanted to leave his wife and when he finally decided to do it , he found that she had taken her own life.

This morning I rolled out of bed Recalling all the sweet things you said This was the day I was gonna hurt you bad(he knew she couldn't live without him but he didn't love her anymore) Called out your name, but you Didn't answer back I searched the house to find out what was wrong Like a ton of bricks, it hit me you were gone(he found she had taken her own life)

I think instead she just left him before he left her. When she leaves, he realizes he can't tell her he's leaving and it becomes almost humorous. He realizes being alone is his biggest fear and that it just came true.

I think instead she just left him before he left her. When she leaves, he realizes he can't tell her he's leaving and it becomes almost humorous. He realizes being alone is his biggest fear and that it just came true.

I disagree that the song is about the girl taking her own life. I think it was the guy's worst fear to leave the girl and when he does, he finds that she is gone. But if she was going to leave why did she kiss him and tell him she loved him the night before?
