Verse 2 (same as Verse 1)

I blushed the first time, but you blushed the last time my eyes in your mind
Regenerated these feelings of hatred, I long for your love evermore
You built me up and you broke me down this time

this is such an awesome song...i know how it feels to want someone back really badly and this describes it exactly...when you screw up with someone you love (in my case, my first love) you aren't sure what to say or do...for a while i just sent him song lyrics, this being one of them, and we talked about getting back together, but he's moved on because i broke his heart..our love will never die, and we both know that, but sometimes its hard to be with someone forever after you have changed and they have too...so all we can do is look back on what we had and what we have been through and be there for each other as friends...i wish him luck with his new girfriend and i hope he knows that i will always love him and be there for him throughout everything...true love never dies...

This song is exactly how i feel about a girl right now, we have been pretty good friends and now we started going out and she broke up with me, now I feel like its so unfair but I still reallllly like her and i would wait for her forever

This song is so nice...although a lot of ppl seem to think that its about one person wanting their one true love back..but to me its something different. my first love and i broke up, i fell for someone else, and so did he. we're both very very happy in our new relationships, but we know that what we had will never die, and that one day we'll end up together again. he always tells me how he thinks letting me get away will be a mistake that he regrets for the rest of his life, if he doesn't get me back...and although i am in love now...with the person i fell for while i was w/him, part of me knows that it will never replace my frist love. it's like that part **how can you say, that it's too late, to save us now**....its never too late...because i too agree w/melonhead...true love never dies. this song is amazing, and i couldn't have put into words how i feel anybetter myself. an amazing amazing band. xoxx lots love guys xoxx ~*cuteness n junk n everything punk*~

this song kicks! i love yellowcard, and the emotion they put into their songs (esp. this one). it has it's own meaning to everyone, that's part of what makes it so great and powerful.

This was the first Yellowcard song I heard and from then on I fell in love with it.. "how can you say that its too late to save us now? and I would wait for you, oh, if you would wait for me, yeah" Incredible.

When he starts singing "And I would wait for you..." it gives me goosebumps every time. *Sigh* The emotion and power behind his voice is amazing. Then the violins and everything, it's just incredible!

it's beautiful... it's just... far too amazing in contrast to a lot of other music. these guys are overall amazing, especially with their whole violin add-on..... astoundingly different. but not ear-piercingly untolerable. this song.. kicks some major punk booty.

this song is just beautiful. I have yet to hear a yellowcard song that I don't like. I think the simplistic lyrics allow for more emotion : one person just wants another person.
