Please don't mind what I'm trying to say 'cause I'm, I'm being honest
When I tell you that you
You, You're part of the reason I'm so set on the rest of my life
Being a part of you
You tell me what you think about being open,
About being honest with yourself

Cause things will never be the same.

So I guess I'll see you, I'll see you around
I'm spinning, while I'm falling down
Now you know why I'm begging you to stay

Don't waste time getting to the point, 'cause I'm, I'm patiently waiting
For your next phone call, your next excuse for losing sleep again
Tell me what you think about being open,
About being honest with yourself

Cause things will never be the same.

So I guess I'll see you, I'll see you around
I'm spinning, while I'm falling down
Now you know why I'm begging you to stay

Cause I can't stop it now
It's so amazing how
I know I can't, I could never walk away

How can we resolve this now?
We let it go, and wonder how
This can ever be the same
(Can never be the)
Can ever be the same

So I guess I'll see you, I'll see you around
I'm spinning, I'm while falling down
Now you know why I'm begging you, I'm begging!

Cause I can't stop it now,
It's so amazing how,
I know I can't, I could never walk away!

Please don't mind what I'm trying to say 'cause I'm, I'm being honest.

    General Comment:to me this song is about a new relationship. they both like each other and everything is going well when one of them realizes that they love the other. basically, this song is about telling someone you love them for the first time.

    to me, this is being in a relationship to protect the other person's feelings.
    i'm completely off, i know. but i can apply this to my life better.

    My Opinion:I don't know if anyone pointed this out, but the intro is very similar to 'How Does It Feel' by Sugarcult. I'm sure there are plenty other song intros like that. Both are great songs though.

    General Comment:yeah i agree mostly with darling

    it sounds like [obviously a relationship type thing but] he just wants everything to be out in the open so she's clear on how he feels

    General Comment:Weird my interpertation is totally different from most on here
    to me it sounds like a guy and a girl were together and had something.
    but the let it go
    it's not the same...
    and he's being honest by admitting his feelings for her still linger
    they both seem to not want to admit that they like each other...
    so he just goes out and says it...
