Content
The song is a mid-tempo ballad in which the narrator recalls a lover who has left him. Although he is able to recall the various details of her life, such as her physical attributes and the year in which she was born, he realizes that he "paid no attention to what mattered most" — specifically, the fact that he overlooked the times when she was feeling sad and ignored.
