I would go into more detail but I don't want to spoil the ending for those who haven't read the play yet. The line 'I'll be there, till the stars don't shine.' basically references the common line that ties in with fate that is through-out the story, the stars represent a persons fate, when their star doesn't 'shine' then that obviously means that fate has deemed their end. From there the song dates everything that happens in the story prior this scene. In the first line ' This Romeo is bleeding, but you can't see his blood' refers to when Romeo kills himself over his beloved one's 'death', meanwhile Juliet is un-aware. I wouldn't say it was about a man who cheated on his lover because even though Romeo did love a girl named Rosaline, he got over her in a heartbeat when he met Juliet. Its told in the perspective of Romeo and the song talks about some of the major parts of the play. It's obviously about the tragedy love story Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare. So many guys (and girls) have been in the same boat, which is why I think people can relate to this song so much. But I still love her and always will.Īnd I think that is what this song is about.

I could never ever take her back because I know those differences will always be there. I had a great romance once, but we just had too many differences for it to work out. He was madly in love with a girl, and somewhere along the lines the relationship just didn't work out, ending with the girl leaving him.Īnd although their relationship is now over, the guy still loves her. I don't think its necessarily that the guy cheated. Jon said it on the 'This left feels right concert' Jon and richie are one of the best song writing duos in the history of music. 'when he holds you close, when he pulls you near Lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group, Kobalt Music Publishing Ltd. We'll find a place where the sun still shines I'll wish I was him 'cause those words are mineīut baby if you give me just one more try When he says the words you've been needing to hear When he holds you close, when he pulls you near

When you say your prayers try to understand What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair

Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry And I'll be there forever and a day alwaysĪnd I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
