This is a truly beautiul song. I think it's definitely about the shock and denial factor a lot of us go through right before a relationship ends and when it has ended. It's about being able to tell that person is fading from you but you don't want to admit it to yourself. And the chorus perfectly represets the confusion and thinking it shouldn't have ended like it did. Then it goes on to post break up and how you see them again and you hold onto that hope again..that something will change and you're not actually broken up. I really adore the lines "He will try to take away my pain and he just may make me smile. But the whole time I'm wishing he was you instead." it really describes exactly how you feel when you try to date someone (or maybe just get romantically involved slightly?) after a break up that hurt you deeply. This song really hits a nerve for me but I love it. It's so deep and personal and beautiul. The acoustic I'd outstanding, too.
