這首歌意境有趣,點出人生的矛盾,講一種失去之後才知道美好的感覺,但一旦你已經失去,卻必須面對遺憾,所以「遺憾」與「美好」,是不是必然共存的呢?這也是暗指人生中的完美,並不存在呀!但是唱歌的人彷彿在碎唸,他那種氣若遊絲的聲音,讓我想起兩件剋星:一件是夏天晚上,在你耳朵旁邊不讓你睡覺的蚊子;另一件則是劉子千。

Well you only need the light when it's burning low

Only hate the road when you're missing home
(然後,一定要等到你厭倦流浪的時候,才會想起家的美好)
Only know you love her when you let her go
(所以,只有當她離開你的時候,你才會驚覺你愛她!)
And you let her go
(不過你還是會讓她走)
Staring at the bottom of your glass

Hoping one day you'll make a dream last

Staring at the ceiling in the dark

Same old empty feeling in your heart
