Blackberry Way Lyrics

Obviously this is a song about someone who has had a breakup and is very lost and upset. But the sticking point is the refrain, because it seems as though the singer is talking to a street.

I thought about that, and I think he's saying goodbye to a place that is entwined with his relationship. Maybe Blackberry Way is the street she or they lived on, or a place they went, like a park. And he's saying goodbye to that place because he finds it too painful to be there anymore.

I don't think, "I can't see you, I don't need you" is spoken to the street at all, but to the girl. He's saying he can't bear to run into the girl and he doesn't need her to see her.

At the same time, he's convinced she'll want him back someday. And then he'll return to Blackberry Way.
