| I love this song but......excuse me while I catch up with my skin. I can't listen to this song at night while alone, because I'll start looking over my shoulder. | |

| This song shows pure desparation. This guy is so desparate to return to what he had that he can't let go of whatever his relationship was. | |

| I watched a VH1 countdown once of top how many ever love songs of all time. Well at a certain point in the show they pointed out that this song was not on the countdown because Sting did not intend for it to be a love song. It was actually a song written about a "Big Brother" type government. Those that have read the book 1984 will understand what I'm talking about. But for those who haven't it's about a controlling government that watches everything you do. | |

| Amazone, if the lyrics of the song are up to the listener, then why are you so quick to say it's not about the cold war? To me, this song has no feeling of being a stalker. To me it's about a lover who dies, and through heaven or being a ghost or whatever it is, watches his love live life without him. | |

| Well I don't think the meaning is in the songwriter. When we all think it's a stalkerish song, then it is, no matter what Sting says! So the meaning is in the audience, the ones who listen to the song. It has an obsessive beat and awesome lyrics... if you listen to this song too much, you might get insane too! And what else could it mean than the literal meaning? Just someone who's obsessed with you, and who watches every move you make. Since you've gone I've been lost without a trace I dream at night I can only see your face I look around but it's you I can't replace I feel so cold and I long for your embrace I keep on crying baby, baby please This part proves that the song does NOT have anything to do with cold war or government. If you think it does, then try to explain this part from your perspective? | |
