This song speaks to me a lot. To me it means someone running away from something in their life but not really knowing the reason or admitting it to themselves.
It reminds me of my biggest mistake. When I was a senior in college I met a great girl at my internship, who was finishing her masters degree and I was just out of a serious relationship. She was cool, smart, funny, loyal and laid back. We had a lot in common and had a lot of good times the year we dated and my parents loved her. She was the first girl I think I dated that was actually good for me but three months after I graduated and moving 1000miles away from her I began to tell myself I wasn't good enough for her, we wouldn't work out, that I still just wanted to fool around and party, and that I didn't love her. In the end I hurt her and she walked away forever. At the time my father told me I made a huge mistake letting an opportunity like her slip away but I shrugged it off.
Now after dating a lot of other girls and growing up I realize she was the best thing for me. Now I realize at the time I didn't realize what I was running from, I was running from commitment and because I was scared of caring about someone that much. Maybe one day I'll find someone like her but right now I realize what I did two years ago was a huge mistake and I threw away a great person because I was too busy looking over the horizon I didn't see what was right in front of me.
