Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Apologize for the mess and tears
Because I found some peace of mind
I've made for the lost time
But if you decide to go
I'll find a way to let you know
I understand you had to leave to make your way back
Blame you for that
I don't think that you understand
Why say love and then take it back
Because I could never ignore you
And you wouldn't let me
But if you decide to go
I'll find a way to let you know
I understand you had to leave to make your way back
I'd never blame you for that
Blame you for that
But here we are now
, two years after a difficult period in the relationship. The singer is taking responsibility for the mess and tears that have occurred, but also acknowledging that they have found some peace of mind in the aftermath. They have been working towards making up for lost time, but they recognize that their partner may still choose to leave. Despite this, they promise to find a way to let them know - this could be a sign that they have grown and become better equipped to handle crises in the relationship.
The second verse addresses the confusion and hurt caused by a partner who initially expresses love, only to take it back. The singer expresses that they cannot ignore their feelings for their partner, even if that same partner would not let them express those emotions. Despite the pain caused by the breakup, the singer makes it clear that they understand why their partner had to leave in order to find their way back to themselves. They will not blame them for making that choice.
Overall, this song seems to be an honest and mature reflection on love and loss. It takes into account the complexity and difficulty of romantic relationships, but still holds onto hope for resolution and growth. It acknowledges the mistakes made in the past, while also looking forward to the future with both uncertainty and optimism.
