This is my personal favorite of the album with a great rhythm throughout the whole song.
I think it is a, as obvious, a story about a girl that always has to be running in life and can't calm and settle down with the guy, who is really doing his best, but somehow doesn't really see her deep problem, so that he could manage to fix it.
"She cried in a night
He brought her flowers in the daytime"
No one really understands the other one. But in the end as it all breaks apart he is the one who is brokenhearted and down while she is not ready to become conscious of her fault ("Go ahead and walk alone
and regret it some-else-where"). She keeps on and he is struggling though he didn't really do something wrong.
One interesting aspect here is the change into the the ego-perspective in the chorus calling her "You" and especially the last line. The poet comes to realize that he just wrote down his own story which gives all this a very personal and even more emotional touch.
