The singer expresses his pain and sadness, admitting that he still cries and can't go on without his former partner. He knows he should be getting better with time, but he can't seem to let go of his feelings and the memories they shared. The lyrics touch on the difficulty of trying to move on and the frustration with oneself for not being able to do so. Despite wanting to believe that it's over and stop caring about his ex-partner, the singer still finds himself wondering about them and missing their love. The song is a poignant reminder of how hard it can be to heal from a broken heart and the lingering effects it can have on a person.
