this song describes my current situation spot on. I am currently still trying to get over a very sad break-up that took place over 2 years ago. 8 years together with him.... and now I know nothing about him-... only that he has traveled extensively...and lost touch? we did.
Interesting lyrics...
"Are we strangers now? Like Rock and Roll and the Radio?"
-One thing that always brought us together was music. I later found out that he saw Ray...perform the same week as me-just in a different State (ironic)
"I can see you lyin' there, tying ribbons in your hair
And pullin' faces.
I can feel your hand in mine, though we're living separate lives
In separate places."
At a distance? We are. However, one thing that still connects me is the music I hear...I can't help but feel connected to him still.
Sad....but unleashes pain that comes from the soul....lost love, unrequited love.
What is meant by the term "pulling faces"? I am not familiar with the term, but I think it might mean that she was tying ribbons in her hair and making funny faces - perhaps in bed with him in happier times or in a silly home video they made. Seems to make sense...

It took me a while, but I like the analogy of their relationship being like Rock and Roll and Radio - just not being on the same page. Rock and Roll has become more about the road - the performances and the grass...
It took me a while, but I like the analogy of their relationship being like Rock and Roll and Radio - just not being on the same page. Rock and Roll has become more about the road - the performances and the grass roots experience of live music, and radio is more and more fragmented. Hard to find a niche. Just like two people trying to live their lives together as though they are singing the same song for an extended period of time.
The line that says "are we strangers now?" is haunting. Even though they are physically apart, she will always be a part of him. Not really knowing where she is or what she's feeling, but it's almost like he can still talk to her. It's like there has not been a formal split. He just hit the road and they drifted apart.
This might be a stretch, but I don't think the voice changes in this song. When he asks "are you still in love with her?" who would "he" be asking? It sounds like he might have been in a relationship with a woman who had bisexual tendencies, and the woman started down a road of depression "before the sorrow." The rest of the song sounds like "he" knows the relationship will eventually end "axe to fall." I would only imagine this scenario because it happened to me..
