One of the best songs on the album, that's for sure. I'm not sure why this got combined with the lyrics for Flashing Room, though.
As for the meaning:
"I remember when it used to be easy
Used to look cute watching the TV
Used to lay there with wet hair
After the shower picking what to wear" ~He is reminiscing, thinking back to their relationship
"But now you're dressing up for somebody else
Looking through my glass as the ice melts
Looking at the past just won't help
I just don't know how the chips all fell" ~She's with someone else-Where did it all go wrong?
"Maybe cuz I didn't follow through
Gave love I didn't follow suit
How you'd say 'I'll always follow you'" ~Sees his own faults-tries to figure out what happened
The chorus basically represents him remembering when she made an effort for and loved him-and only him.
"Wander till I get somewhere
Wander like I just don't care
I'll wander knowing it's not fair
Wander, look look looking
Wander till I get somewhere
Wander like I just don't care
I'll wander knowing it's not fair
Wander, look look looking" ~Trying to get over her and find someone else
"Wander, til I find someone
But it�s just not you so I�m just not done
I could make a million calls to new tongues
I could find a million girls, I want one" ~He wants HER
"You could draw a million lines in gold sand
I could walk across and hope to slow dance
A million love letters now turned to dust" ~It's over-forever
Basically, he is trying to accept that she isn't his anymore. He lost his chance and she's moved on. He wants her to come back...and love only him. I'm pretty sure we can all relate to that. :P
