Driving home awhile ago when this song came on the radio. Love it but I don't really know why.
A few minutes earlier, I had walked right smack into a glass door on my way out of a cafe-bar. And there I was, trying my darnest to steer properly while nursing a partially swollen forehead and a bloody 1cm gash above my left eye. A little groggy to say the least. Such an Idiot!
So as I sit here now with an ice-pack in my left hand and trying to type with my right, can someone please tell me what the words really mean? I fear I have been knocked stupid.
You really want each other but fate and circumstance keep you apart? Is that it? Impossible Love?
Beautiful metaphors aplenty though...
You can look at the menu but you just can't eat
You can feel the cushions but you can't have a seat
You can dip your foot in the pool but you can't have a swim
You can feel the punishment but you can't commit the sin
And you want her and she wants you
We want everyone
And you want her and she wants you
No one, no one, no one ever is to blame
You can build a mansion but you just can't live in it
You're the fastest runner but you're not allowed to win
Some break the rules
And live to count the cost
The insecurity is the thing that won't get lost
And you want her and she wants you
We want everyone
And you want her and she wants you
No one, no one, no one ever is to blame
You can see the summit but you can't reach it
Its the last piece of the puzzle but you just can't make it fit
Doctor says you're cured but you still feel the pain
Aspirations in the clouds but your hopes go down the drain
And you want her and she wants you
We want everyone
And you want her and she wants you
No one, no one, no one ever is to blame
No one ever is to blame
No one ever is to blame
