Song Meaning
Lead singer Adam Duritz explained the meaning of the song in an early 2008 live performance[1]:
| “ |
I wrote in Amsterdam a week after Accidentally In Love, at the time written about “what if this wonderful thing in my life were to fall apart and drift away.” And years later after it actually did, it becomes this truly sad thing to have lost something that meant so much to you.
And it’s really interesting, a friend commented to me the other night, she said: “you know this album; the healthier you get, the sadder it gets.” I think that’s because madness is like numbness, and you retreat from the world. And the healthier you get the better you are and the more you can feel. And feeling can go either way. You can feel good, you can feel bad.
