Story Behind The Song
A relationship in which I knew the person I was with wouldn't achieve all of their desires if they stayed with me. I realized that I would feel horrible if I allowed someone I loved to forget what they wanted in life.
Song Description
Knowing someone so well and feeling as if you don't know them at all. Thinking that you're together for different reasons. Realizing that your dreams are completely different and compromising would be the wrong thing to do.

Lyrics
I see the pictures that you've painted in your mind. Even before you've got them down. I see the ones I've painted of you inside. I think I've got them memorize.
Chorus: Now it's realized that the pain I feel inside, is more than I should be taking. I see your dreams revealed in a wide open field and I choke down my hear that is breaking. Why can't I just fall in love like others fall? Why does it hurt so bad to be falling in and out of love with you?
Verse: Don't know if my heart had a glass case around it. I know if you touch it she will bleed. Up until now I thought the only way I could tame it. Was letting it grow just like a weed.
Chorus: Now it's realized that the pain I feel inside, is more than I should be taking. I see your dreams revealed in a wide open field and I choke down my hear that is breaking. Why can't I just fall in love like others fall? Why does it hurt so bad to be falling in and out of love with you?
