This song is obviously filled with inside references to the singer and his literal relationship, but the general subject matter is something that anyone can understand; the feelings that prompted the writing of this song, something that many people can relate to..
The feeling of going through your life, doing all these things, but feeling that something was just...off. That somehow or other, you were not complete. And then you meet someone or you're with them or whatever and then all of a sudden, everything feels RIGHT. Like that this is how it was supposed to be all along. And you realize..all this time, all the things you had done, places you had gone, you were just floating around, almost like half of a good book..not BAD by yourself...but not finished. Not whole. All you needed was for a certain someone to come and finish the book. And then, not only are you just NOT BAD but you're INCREDIBLE, together. They're like the milk to your cookies...
And once you find them, you don't want to do anything without them, and you don't want them to do anything without you... Just like after you've eaten cookies dipped in milk, it just doesn't feel right to have one without the other.
