This song is a brief overview of their relationship; how it began and how it all fell apart. At the start of the song, it seems to be love at first sight. They see each other for the first time and are enamored with each other. At first, they are nervous and almost blunder the relationship before it starts. But, they work it out and “save” their relationship. As time goes on, their relationship grows and they change. They are no longer the love sick, optimistic people they were when they first met. He is jaded and darker, and she is contemplating leaving him. He wants her to leave him so he doesn’t hurt her and drag her down anymore, so she an be happy. But they do both still love each other. This song is them fighting for their relationship, in little ways like moving past a blundered first meeting, and in big ways, in deciding if staying together is worth all the pain caused by the major changes in their personalities.
