| okayy, so for the straw wrapper thing, i've always done it that if you get a knot then the person you like or whatever ISN'T thinking about you? have i just been really wrong or is there deep meaning to that line which i'm just not getting? anyways, my favorite hellogoodbye by far | |

| One of my favorite lines in the song is: "My straw wrapper might tear And there would be no knot and I would Feel like I'd been shot right in the heart" I would do that too, hahaha, and hope the girl that I'm thinking about is thinking about me. | |

| gah.. such a wonderful song.. this is the epidemy of why i love hellogoodbye..because i can relate in some way to almost every one of their songs.. the lyrics are so specific.. yet so discrete- since the person he is singing to is never mentioned.. it explains everything.. rite down to the straw wrapper on my wall | |

| I love this song! I think it's about a new love and the girl is on vacation or lives in Hawaii. He misses her and wishes they were together. The only part of the song I don't get is: "Your drawing's rad and I Put it on my wall and I made Sure it wouldn't fall 'cause if it did My straw wrapper might tear And there would be no knot and I would Feel like I'd been shot right in the heart" So she drew him something.. he hung it on the wall.. and what is the straw wrapper thing about? Other then that one part I get what hes saying. This is such a great song. | |

| this is definitely my favorite song cause i can relate to it. there's this girl i know who lives in canada and she is my favorite person in the world to talk to and "I'd be overjoyed if we could just hang out sometime" not to mention date or be more than friends, but "I know it's stupid." yea. great song. im seeing hellogoobye live on nov 7th :) so i REALLY hope they play this song | |

| OK, wel I think this song it about the guy being in love with a girl he met in hawaii, (or she met him where he lives or whatever) and then that person moved back to their home, but he still loves her and even though becuz of the distance, he will still wait for her forever, even if it all falls through and doesnt happen in the end. | |

| best hgb song ever... when you get a straw wrapper, you cross it once like tying your shoe, and pull it apart...if a knot appears, someone is thinking of you, if not...nobody is... ...only forrest would think of using that image in a song...totally awesomely clever... i wish i could write songs like this... | |

| ok, first of all....best song. EVER. lol i think it's about a guy (the singer) going on vacation to hawaii and meeting this amazing girl, who's a local, and then he has to leave her and may never see her again....just my guess, though :) | |

| reminds me of a younger reggie and the full effect. this song is about my weinah. and how the aztecs invaded the mayas and incas just fled to hawaii and how aztec men who stayed miss inca women who went to the hawaiian islands. | |
