I love this song - it's been stuck in my head for the past couple of days. My thoughts on the song... I think he's saying he's alone - no girl by his side and whatnots in the first verse - in the second he's saying he has no kids - her hasn't made a name for himself - no girl wants to marry him and take his name - then in the third he explains the faint calls he hears - maybe of lovers past? Asking him to come back, stay where he is, and one asking to marry him - but he realizes he doesn't want to be with any of them and it's best to maybe just give up.

I dunno. That's what I got from it. It's great. I love them... Especially LJ.
