I mean, she followed her heart at the time, and looking back, she clearly feels she could have saved herself as well as others some pain by having continued to pretend it didn't matter?
So, maybe she's coming to terms with how she's had to give up parts of her passion to fulfill this want in her life? My thoughts on the indecisiveness is that she seems to be all about her career every few months and then she disappears to her marriage again for awhile.

I thought this song and maybe even Last Minute are her thoughts on Manny now that she has been able to find love again and she's thinking back to why things didn't work last time? They seem more reflective than the lyrics following the divorce. I think she wanted to make it work with Manny at the time but found it too hard in the end and you can hear that regret in the songs and maybe those times are highlighted and make more sense to her now by having found someone else. Either way, some good lyrics on this single. They feel Ayu and touch on Ayu themes but still feel new and with a real connection.
I really love the chorus and how it builds and wonder how it would have sounded with two choruses repeated at the end in a standard song structure way? I'm torn between thinking it would be too much or super awesome...
