This song was written by Brian May, after cheating on his first wife, Chrissie Mullen, with then Eastenders actress Anita Dobson, whom he later married. "Too much love" was Brian's way of saying he still loved Chrissie but also loved Anita, "torn between the lover and the love you leave behind" and saying it's "impossible to choose" between the two. He regrets cheating, but at the same time loves Anita and so is put in a position where he has to choose just one, and no matter which he chooses, he's "bound to lose".
