This song is about two first loves that dated in high school. They obviously got separated or broke up in high school and dated other people but still loved one another from a distance. They run into each other ten years after high school and talk about where they are in life now and they remember how much they loved and still love each other. They song is saying everyone has bruises meaning everyone hurts. It has nothing to do with "bad relationships" like a prior comment. It's about when you love someone but you let them go. It's just like that quote that goes somewhere along the lines of "if you love someone let them go, if they don't come back they never were yours but if they do then they always were." Well something's were just always meant to be and some loves just always find their ways back to one another. Crazy how life and love can do those things.
