This is an amazing song. Absolutely amazing. To me, it's about two people who, for whatever reason, cannot be together anymore. The person narrating it knows this and realizes that's how it has to be but still cannot come to terms with it. He is not trying to get back with this person, but he cannot get her off of his mind. He has tried to move away, do whatever he could, but nothing works. 'Taking my time but it's time that I'm wasting' is my favorite quote and I can relate this quote a LOT...he thinks that in time that he will get over the loss, but he knows he's wasting time by not moving on with his life in the meantime...There is so much meaning in this song I could go on forever---he's been hurt, the relationship won't and can't work, but the facts don't make him feel any better nonetheless. If you've never had a love go bad like this, you wouldn't understand the song and it will have no meaning. When circumstances make it impossible for 2 people to be together, it is heart wrenching. I love this song.
I agree with you, blondielou2... This song means to me exactly what you said. Thats what I'm trying do now with my life... moving on after a relationship where I was being hurt. But guess what? I still think about her and no matter what I try to do, its a waste of time. I cannot get her rid of my thoughts. I will try to do what KIKI5678 suggested: as I still love I need to let her go... If one day she comes back it is because it was meant to be. Peace and love to everyone.

I know you are right. I tried to post a new comment trying to say the same things, but it didn't come ouy right. You basically rded alotook the meaning right out of my mouth, but wot better. To the original poster, the other replier, and anyone else who feels like this, you have my sympathy, and i hope I have yours.

sorry. i meant to say it didn't come out right, and took the meaning out of my mouth. my stupid computer just randomly moves the typing spot to a different spot and i type there and screw up words.

You're right about that. I heard this song incessantly on the radio growing up, thinking it was an okay song, but I never really understood the real meaning of this song until I was still in a similar situation you described. No matter how impossible a relationship is with another person, you still can't get that person out of your head.
Been almost 4 years and over 6,700 miles, and I still haven't completely gotten over her.

I completely agree with you. Many times we have to let go. If it comes back at a better time later, then that is what is meant to be.
