"When I let you closer I only want you closer" I relate to this completely. My ex and I dated for a while and now I'm trying to keep being best friends up and its just really hard ....

This song reminds me of my ex bf. we were together 19 months. We just grew apart & eventually broke up, but still fooled around and stuff. 5 months later we're both seeing someone new, but I still love him. Aaaaargh! This song totally gets to me - I still see him cos we're best friends so the lyrics "And we know what happens when we get to your house Rip my heart right out You'll rip my heart right out " kinda fit. Lifes a bitch. :S:

Well, I think the meaning of this song is pretty universal, but it's the way that it's presented that makes it so damn special. I'd listened to the album maybe four times before I realised just how heartbreaking the song was -- and then I couldn't stop listening to it over and over again... with the kind of obsession that makes romance hard, whether you're falling in love or tearing yourself apart. It's all self-inflicted wounds anyway.

the bridge in the song is so amazing, it's a perfect description of the situation I'm in right now, wishing I had another chance to 'lose you again'. (I'm talking about this part: "Oh, I throw away everything I've written you / Oh anything, just keep my mind off of thinking / how I had you once / No, I can't forget that / Sometimes I wish I could lose you again") But I don't and all I have left is a broken heart...:(

Absolutely heartbreaking song. The degree of emotion Jim puts into the song takes it to another level. The repetition at the end is what gets me. Fantastic song. And xpankfrisst, you interpretation does make sense and is the one I go for.
