Lyrics meaning
The singer expresses regret and longing after leaving a lover. He misses the affection they shared and says he did not understand its value until it was gone. The repeated lines make the feeling seem persistent: he keeps returning to the same thought, rather than moving on.
The words โloveโ and โkissโ stand for both physical affection and closeness in the relationship. โWhat I had in store for youโ suggests he had love to give, though the lyrics do not explain why he left or what happened between them. Calling himself a โpoor boyโ may be a playful way to present himself as helpless in the face of his desire, not necessarily a statement about money.
The song is direct and repetitive, so its meaning does not need to be complicated: the singer wants the lover back, or at least misses what they had. Still, the refrain โwhat could a poor boy doโ leaves room for different readings. It might sound like a lighthearted excuse, or like genuine helplessness. The lyrics do not make clear whether he hopes to reunite or is simply remembering the relationship.
