i first heard this song about 6 yrs ago when i was in a relationship with a man who was engaged. it spoke volumes to me because i was, in fact, living in the bizarre love triangle, so to speak. the song was sang through his POV (in my imagination)... the words "I'm waiting for that final moment, You say the words that I can't say" meant he was waiting, kinda hoping and praying, i would break it off. that i might tell him i've had enough, i can't do this anymore... so he wouldn't have to carry on with another woman and have the guilt from his unfaithfulness... he couldn't break it off with me because the longer we were together the more he realized he wasn't happy with the woman he was engaged to... i was ruining everything by making him more aware. another reason he could never say goodbye to me first was the passion we had between us was something he had lost with his wife to be. that one phrase is the whole song to me.
