I love and hate this song. I love it because its just a beautiful song and I'd like to think I'd say "I'll Be" to a girl some day. I hate it because it always reminds me of my ex-girlfriend and thats just something I could do without right now. Too many painful memories go along witht that.

I have a super stupid question. What does this song mean if your ex sends it to you and it's been 10 years since you dated and you are both still friendly (chats and emails a few times a year) and you are both happily married with kids? This is a person I dated for years and he broke up with me, broke my heart and married someone else. (Eventually I realized my life would be miserable with him because we are completely different.)

hmmmm... i dont have an answer to that... but i dont find it a stupid question.
