Another sad but beautiful song...

I happen to like this song so much. I'm moved by the lyrics plus the fact that it's Dido who sang it..

Don't you just love her?...

Dido..  

I know you think that I shouldn't still love you,
Or tell you that.
But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it
where's the sense in that?

I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were

Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I know I left too much mess and
destruction to come back again
And I caused but nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again
And if you live by the rules of "it's over"
then I'm sure that that makes sense

Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

And when we meet
Which I'm sure we will
All that was then
Will be there still
I'll let it pass
And hold my tongue
And you will think
That I've moved on....

*White Flag*

The meaning is right there.. No effort to understand it and to me it's immensely hurting. I can just relate how people of such situation are. It's not that I am in such situation. In fact, I'm on the opposite end but songs like that make me realize all the more that I can't lose Richard. I don't want him to be just a part of a sad song. I don't want to someday chant a desperate song to him, only to try and win him back...
