| To add to my comment above, the guy in this song has obviously experienced getting hurt by girls leaving him in the past and sees the same pattern with this new girl hes singing to/about | |

| PErsonally, i think this song talks about a guy who always goes after the most unattainable girls... and he is meeting this other girl who sits with him for a minute and talking to him or whatever and hes saying sooner or later i know youll leave but save it for later.. stay for now.. And he's saying just hold my hand while i come to a decision on it... trying to procrastinate the time so that she'll just stay. He just wants her to stay and that's all. It's a really sweet song from someone's heart it seems to me. | |

Before i read anyone else's comments and alter mine... This is what i think this song is about: It's pretty much obviously a couple although this could apply to friendships also. The guy clearly pretty much loves this girl and everything about her and treats her how he feels about her which is with kindness. But the girl doesn't so easily give back the same 100% dedication/love that the guy is willing to give. Instead, she sticks around, but says some cutting remarks from time to time which leave him feeling probably a little shot down all the time, and he wishes she would just be nice. You've gotta be cruel to be kind is the response that the girlfriend gives when asked by the boyfriend why she just can't be nice. And by being cruel to be kind, the girlfriend is basically answering, "Overall, I am nice. I'm just brutally honest with my thoughts and feelings." Anyways I have memories of my old best friend singing this song and I miss her.. so i love this song |
