This song popped into my head this morning. I haven't heard it in years. I think it's about unconventional situationships, or "it's complicated" relationships. For me it's about waiting for someone that you love to choose you, or make some kind of a commitment. It's about feeling like you're the only one who's trying to be understanding, or compromising. It's about loving someone who has a very different way of showing love and has very different needs from you. It's about having to make a head over heart decision, and being heartbroken about it. In the end, feeling hopeless and wondering if you'll ever find anyone who "gets you" or love that's reciprocated in a way that is meaningful to you. I think the song is also trying to say that the look of love is different for everyone and just because your lover doesn't show it in the same way as you do... that doesn't mean that they don't love you.
