This song started to be about jealousy in a relationship, but there is so much more to read from it and I wouldn't want to take away from anyone's imagination, so I will let you interpret.
lyrics
So you stayed there ‘til 2:00,
thought you’d keep your eye on her
But keeping love for herself is like caging a bird
and when she gives it away, she’ll be weak for a moment
She’ll forget her own face, she’ll forget her own name
Did you imagine that she would go running?
Did you imagine horses wild in your head?
She said, “I used to fall freely,
I would have been at your feet
I used to fall freely but something suspended me
I used to fall freely, I would have been at your feet
I used to fall freely but something suspended me”
She just hangs from the sky, while he dreams of her love
but she’s forgetting his face, she’s forgetting his name
Did you imagine that she would go running?
Did you imagine horses wild in your head?
I used to fall freely, I would have been at your feet
I used to fall freely but something suspended me
I used to fall freely, I would have been at your feet
I used to fall freely but something suspended me
something suspended me
something suspended me
