My interpretation of this song... is fairly straight forward. The singer is agonizing over a break up. The singer cannot seem to accept the truth of it, they are still deeply in love- yet the other individual is not. The person the singer loves is ending the relationship and they are detached. The singer is hurt by the other person's positive demeanor when they interact, it's a foretelling body language that implies the break up's finality... the lover smiling after a break up is never coming back. The singer is in anguish. This is a painful song for me, and anyone else who has been in this situation may read into the song the same way. Hits a it too close to home for me to listen to without tears, but it is a beautiful song never the less.
