Lyrics

So confused I'm amazed I refused

Expressing confusion and disbelief in having refused something.

To believe you'd never change in my time spent with you

Reflecting on the past, questioning the belief that the person would never change during the shared time.

Remember me we were young cool and free

Nostalgically recalling a time of youth, freedom, and being cool together.

And I believed in everything you aspired to be

Expressing past belief in the partner's aspirations and dreams.


Love is blind

Love is described as blind, implying it may overlook flaws or deception.

What a dream what a lie

Highlighting the contradictory nature of love - both dreamlike and deceptive.

When it sees everything in time

Love can see everything in time, indicating a realization of the truth over time.


And yes dear I believed

Acknowledging belief in something as a form of self-deception.

It was my way of self deceiving

Admitting to self-deception as a way of coping with reality.

And now it's getting late

Recognizing the lateness of the situation, possibly referring to the relationship.

And I'm passed all the grieving

Having moved past the stage of grieving, suggesting acceptance.


Something inside of me breaks

Describing an emotional break when receiving a phone call from the person.

When I get your phone call

Expressing inability to hide emotions when in contact with the person.

And I just can't hide

Revealing emotional difficulty in facing the reality of the situation.


The big love has died

Stating that the significant love in the relationship has come to an end.

The big love has died

Repeating the declaration of the end of the major love in the relationship.


There is a love that's real I'll always feel and that I can't deny

Affirming the presence of a real and lasting love that cannot be denied.

But it's the friend in me this time you see that has to say goodbye

Indicating that, despite the enduring love, the friendship component requires parting.

Quietly you and me time to say goodbye

Accepting the need to say goodbye quietly between the two individuals.


So yes dear I believed it was my way of self deceiving

Reiterating the belief in self-deception as a coping mechanism.

And now it's getting late and I'm passed all the grieving yeah

Confirming the lateness of the situation and having moved beyond grieving.


Nothing can take away the pain and the sorrow everything at stake

Expressing that nothing can alleviate the pain and sorrow with everything at stake.


We just missed our time (we just missed our time)

Stating that they missed their chance or timing in the relationship.


The big love has died

Final confirmation of the termination of the major love in the relationship.
