Lyrics meaning
The speaker is separated from someone he still loves. He remembers their arguments and mistakes, but his feelings have not ended. The emotion moves from loneliness and regret toward a quiet, persistent confession: despite what happened, he continues to love the other person.
Several images express what went wrong. โDreams that flew awayโ suggests hopes for their relationship that did not come true, while โwords we didnโt sayโ points to feelings or explanations left unspoken. Being โlost in a stormโ presents their conflict as confusing and difficult to navigate. The phrase โplayed the games that people playโ may refer to familiar patterns in relationships, such as pride, testing each other, or avoiding honest communication.
The song does not present one person as solely responsible: the speaker says they both let each other down and were โtoo blind to seeโ what they needed. His belief that the other person needed him is an interpretation, not something confirmed by their own words. โStillโ could mean his love has endured, but it may also suggest that he is holding on to a relationship that has already ended.
