this song is about desolate complaint of a lover who has been betrayed and betrayed again, yet still remains with their tormentor. later in the song, though, the narrator finally realises they will never again find happiness with the person (to stay with you, i'd be a fool), and dumps them. this song has been rumoured to be a sort of thing where it would be the edge singing this to aislinn, who were divorcing around the time the song was written.
