  General Comment:I think the song is about falling for a person you are not supposed to fall in love with. Maybe a friend or a person to whom, you are nothing but someone to have sex with.

  General Comment:I still can't get over how you are going through such a similar experience to myself. It's unreal.
  Again, I feel you with every ounce of my compassion and empathy. I really hope for the best. I know how hard it can be. Even if it isn't even a damn love affair. We cannot be used like this any longer girl, we need to stand up and fight for our own dignity.
  Easier said than done though, right?

  General Comment:I can relate Miss :( "I'd rather have you close than never at all"...I've done that for so long, not falling out completely because of being scared of losing even the presence of this guy that became much more than I expected him to. I guess I didn't mind being controlled or misused as long as he's there.
  
  "Even though I know
  You know it's not even a love affair
  I'm makin' plans with the ghost of what was there
  I've become a desperate fool
  And it's all because of you "
  
  Those lines are pure truth to me. This guy and I are basically nothing, not even a love affair (maybe former really close friends). But I still have him in my mind all the time, dreaming or making plans with "the ghost of what was there"!!!. Which is soul-killing. You just don't realize that the other person's feelings are just not that strong as yours and you don't understand their rejection, or indifference, or random interest.

  General Comment:Ah, yes...such a great song for this particular moment in my life. I believe it's a song about liking someone, them perhaps not reciprocating the feelings, and you trying to get over that but at the same time wanting them close by just for the sake of having them close by. And although you know it's not good for you to be around this person if you want to get over them, you can't help yourself because they are like a drug...their presence or their voice can just tie you over for that moment, like a quick fix. And at the same time, wanting to warn them to get away...keep away before I get in too deep and I'm compeletly lost in you because I can't help what my heart wants. A battle really, of the heart and the mind.
