The song opens with the protagonist recounting how his partner easily told him that she now has someone who loves and cherishes her, highlighting the emotional distance that had grown between them.
The woman explains that it was difficult for her to give herself to another man, but she felt compelled to do so because she wasn't receiving the love and attention she needed from the protagonist.
