Life's too short to play hard to get, lol beautifulmindheartsoul on January 12, General Comment as a couple in love -- haven't you ever talked about where your spirits would meet after you die?
He's singing about reaching the end of his life, his "something to rely on" would be the promise they made to each other about where to meet. General Comment So, I have what seems to be a completely different take on this song. To me, rather than this song being about a relationship that isn't working, I see it as a relationship that is getting deeper. All they really needed was to be by themselves and "sit by the river" and think.
They're wondering if they should go back to the "simple thing" and be alone. They're tired of being alone but they need somewhere to start the relationship. By admitting their real feelings for each other, it will be the end of the loneliness that was all they ever knew. Kind of like in P. I Love You where they're talking about the "end of life as you know it. And that "somewhere only we know," to me, is just the completely unique love that they share.
I know it's not what everybody thinks but that is what the song means to me. Everybody has their own interpretation. General Comment this song reminds me about my at-one-time best friend, who was in fact a boy. Desaparecida on September 17, Link. It seems like you are describing my life! I met this guys when I was about 8 We used to hang out by this river surrounded by trees one tree had fallen! He asked me out when we were about 12, but I felt that the friendship was going to be ruined, especially because his friends always made fun of us.
So I told him I just wanted to be friends. I think he was really upset and begged me to be with him but it didn't feel right especially since I he would have been my first boyfriend. We were still friends but we didn't see each other as often after that. He grew up and started hanging around boys. Then I realised the mistake I made but I didn't know how to get talking to him again. Then a couple of years later, my friend persuaded us to meet up. So we met up and he asked me out again.
Later on I called him to ask if he wanted to meet up. He passed the phone to his friend and his friend said that he has met someone else that pretty, skinny, blond girl, I presume.
I was heart broken :' I never got over him. He was my only boyfriend and the bestest friend I had. Every time we see each other, its really awkward. I haven't spoken to him in over a year, and he has no idea how I feel. It know this sounds like a little schoolgirl thing, but out of all the boys I have liked, he is the one I need :' The point of this long story-- I wish we could go back to the river and the tree with the tire swing - somewhere only we know.
Because this could be the end of everything between us. Those years between age 8 and 12 were the best in my life. And now its all gone :' almostalice on June 12, General Comment I don't think this is a love song. In my opinion the song talks about a hard situation in which you have to grow up, i came up with this because of the "Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
It's about missing your childhood and how easy things were. I think that place he talks about, that "somewhere" is a place that exists only in his mind where he can be free. I get this freedom thing from the facts that he talks about a river, trees and nature related stuff.
I love this song, I used to listen to it a lot when I was sad about my grandmothers dead. Whenever I listen to it a automatically picture myself in a field of sunflowers for some reason haha Pupy on February 15, Link.
