| Just got engaged to that girl I was talking about. Never give up. To quote another Lumineers song, " I never sink when you're with me. Oh Lord, I'm your Dead Sea!" | |

It cut off a bit of my post so...... "Don't F#*$($($(..........forget that." Basically telling people that if you have a relationship you think is the one, neither one of you should move because everything you thought you had will blow up in your face. Refrain Same as last time. Again, this is just my opinion, im sure others with different life experiences will think differently. Sorry for the double post! |

First of all, I love this song. Can't stop listening to it. I saw them in concert a couple months ago. Loved it. In my opinion, again its just that, but I think this is a song about a failed long distance relationship. "Oh honey...........pick up chicks" Broadripple is a neighborhood in Indianapolis I believe. I think this portion is talking about the utter chaos that hes been left in now that she has left him all alone in the neighborhood the grew up in and fell in love in. "And darlin'.......headed home." He remembers the night she told him she was leaving. He wishes they were heading back to Broadripple, but he knows they aren't. She's off to bigger and better things. So he's lost. "And there was love.....most every night" This is more reminiscing about their time together in Broadripple. "And darlin' I'm drunk......and come back home." He's drunk and he went to where she moved and he is begging her to move back to Broadripple so they can be together and make everything right. Refrain He's drunk and can tell she knows. He doesn't want her to judge him, he just wants her to come home. Otherwise he's going to be miserable and won't be able to live without her. "And if my woman.....outer space." She left him in the blink of an eye to move elsewhere and the only thing he knew to replace her with was booze and cigarettes. The cigarettes and outer space makes me picture a guy standing in the middle of the street, smoking a cigarette, looking up at the stars, thinking about what he's lost. It's quite haunting. "Then somebody moves.......to shit" Basically says when somebody moves away the whole relationship that you thought was perfect blows up in your face. "But we.....forget that." Here is trying to convince her. Even though we are far apart, we've got a lot going for us. "And I wrote......east Japan." Here is flying back home after his unsuccessful attempt to convince her to get back together and maybe even come home. She's the "nuclear bomb" that has devastated his life (east Japan). "Don't F%#$ |

| I just kept being myself. I showed her what kind of person I really was. I'm not gonna lie, it took a while. I mean, there was always something there, but she was hung up on this ex-boyfriend that treated her like crap. So by being myself I showed her how happy things would be with me because Ii was always there for her and treated her with respect. I'm not going to lie, there was a mutual attraction initially, which I think is necessary, but that ex was the stumbling block we both had to overcome. And we did. I think this song would have been me if I would have just given up and moved on. | |

For me, this song isn't about a love lost, but a love that never happened. Maybe its just me and my experiences affecting my interpretation of this song, but to me its about a guy who treats this girl right and loves her the way she should be loved, but she doesn't reciprocate those feelings (I been trying to do it right / I been living a lonely life / I been sleeping in my bed.....). Despite him doing right by her this whole time and all the things he does for her, he's gotten no where. He's done everything right, so he can't understand how she doesn't reciprocate his feelings. (All the blood that I will bleed / I don't know where I belong / I don't know where I went wrong). There's another guy and he's probably not a good person and doesn't treat her well, but she stays with him anyway. If she would have gone out with him things would have been different, things would have been so much better. (I don't think you're right for him / think of what might have been / if we took a bus to China Town). She's his sweet heart and always will be and they belong together in his mind, but she never realizes it for herself. Maybe I'm just reading this in terms of my own life because what I described happened to me. The only difference is I ended up with the girl in the end. :). |
