She had four white stallions coming up around the bend
Four strong angels at her command to send
Four more seasons, for all that's broken to mend
I got four good reasons why I can't go back there again
She had skin like a statue, milky white and pure
Carved by an artist whose hand is demure
Got a mind like a sabre
Razor sharp and sure
God how I hate myself for still wanting her
Tell me it's nicer dreaming, visions soft and sure
No way to find there's nothing left to me and her
Nothing more but a heart still at war
She had four white stallions coming up around the bend
Four strong angels already sent
Four more seasons for all that's broken to mend
She had four more seasons wrong, broken to mend
And I got four good reasons why I can't go back there again
Four strong angels at her command to send
Four more seasons, for all that's broken to mend
I got four good reasons why I can't go back there again
She had skin like a statue, milky white and pure
Carved by an artist whose hand is demure
Got a mind like a sabre
Razor sharp and sure
God how I hate myself for still wanting her
Tell me it's nicer dreaming, visions soft and sure
No way to find there's nothing left to me and her
Nothing more but a heart still at war
She had four white stallions coming up around the bend
Four strong angels already sent
Four more seasons for all that's broken to mend
She had four more seasons wrong, broken to mend
And I got four good reasons why I can't go back there again

Personally, I think it's more...like when you love a girl who is so beautiful that she could leave you and still have men lined up waiting to take her. Like the four white stallions or four strong angels. And they've broken up and he knows she won't have a problem moving on but he does, he keeps thinking about how beautiful she is, and hates himself for it.
And then he starts to find that there's nothing left of him in her except her heart might still be a little broken.
Just my take.
The thing that makes me believe this is what the song is about, is the fact he never answers the question, what are the "four good reasons" ..it is left for you to interpret and read between the lines. He is ashamed of his actions, so ashamed he can't even bring himself to mention it, except by saying he has four good reasons why he can't go back.
That's my take on it, anyway.
i've been thinking lately about why men cheat on their wives when they really are in love. and while i'm sure there are tons of different reasons, i certainly think sexual appeal is obviously so much of it. they can be in love with one woman's entire self, but after being with her and only her, the appeal of a beautiful woman who will sleep with him is too much.
four reasons not to go back...
does adam write songs that aren't about himself? i mean, about characters? 'cause i was thinking, a wife and three kids. something like that.
eh.
lol, i like that line...
four strong angels at her command to send
four more seasons, for all thats broken to mend
I got four good reasons why I cant go back there again
She had skin like a statue, milky white and pure
carved by an artist who's hand is demure
got a mind like a sabre
razor sharp and sure
God how I hate myself for still wanting her
Tell me its nicer dreaming, visions soft and sure
no way to find theres nothing left to me and her
nothing more but a heart still at war
She had four white stallions coming up around the bend
four strong angels already sent
four more seasons for all thats broken to mend...
