James Blunt's love songs are quite romantic and sentimental... The lyrics, the music plus his voice... I like it very much! This is the song for his lover... if he dies.
Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
'Cause I saw the end before we'd begun,
Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won.
So I took what's mine by eternal right.
Took your soul out into the night.
It may be over but it won't stop there,
I am here for you if you'd only care.
You touched my heart you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.
And love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.
I've kissed your lips and held your hand.
Shared your dreams and shared your bed.
I know you well, I know your smell.
I've been addicted to you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.
I am a dreamer and when i wake,
You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take.
And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be
I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile.
I've watched you sleeping for a while.
I'd be the father of your child.
I'd spend a lifetime with you.
I know your fears and you know mine.
We've had our doubts but now we're fine,
And I love you, I swear that's true.
I cannot live without you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.
And I still hold your hand in mine.
In mine when I'm asleep.
And I will bare my soul in time,
When I'm kneeling at your feet.
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.
I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow.
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.
I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow.
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.
The last part, "I'm so hollow" means he had become a spirit, means he died. Spend more time with the one you love, though money and career are important, but no one ever said "I wish i could spend more time in office," when they're going to die. (Surveys from a group of professionals.)
Maybe you can't give her the best throughout your life, but there are things that money can't buy... So share your time with her... Quality time with her... Give her sweet memories... Make special dinner for two... Walks on the beach... Travel together... Make love to her (my favourite :P) Just... spend time with her... You may be able to bring that with you after you'd died, but you can't bring money with you....
One thing i realized... Quite funny... Chinese burns money for their loved one who died so they can spend in Hell. Well, if they really can receive it... That makes Chinese the boss in Hell coz they will be so rich. Other race like Indians, Malays, Europeans... They'll all be so poor. Hahahaha! (Out of topic. :X)
Note: I'm a guy, and i'm lazy to write him/her or he/she. If you're a girl, replace that with He and Him yourself :p
I'm not that familiar with the song; although I have to agree that you should spend quality time with the one you love,living each day as if it's your last
