My favorite part is "tomorrow we can drive around this town, let the cops chase us around, the past is gone, but something might be found to take its place." This creates images that a lot of people can relate to. He is basically desperate to create new memories with this girl. He knows that she is in the past, but has a need to rekindle the old flame and see what happens. He never says in the song, but I think the girl has no more interest in him, thus his "jealousy". I know someoen that I had great memories with, but the past is the past and I sometimes long for those moments although we grew apart. I have called since, but seems like there is no more spark to start the fire....makes me kind of think nostalgic thoughts. Those fleeting moments we all have and are forever in our memories.
