I feel it is a about a girl who broke up with him for no reason but keeps him stringing along. Anthony from Long Island, NyI do not take this song as literal as maybe I should and I will explain.She is pursuing a dream and he is not included in it and is merely a picture now. When all said and done, he is worried and heartbroken. This, while he also speaks of "a scar can talk about" which signifies his first real broken heart. He obviously does not want her in New York and feels it will overwhelm her. "Another alien on broadway" Outsiders who come to New York can be spotted nearly instantly (this is my observation being from NY). He tried to keep her from leaving though. "Took all except my name" She did not marry him. Anthony from Long Island, NyDon't know if this is the real meaning - but this is how I took some parts.He wrote it from the perspective of his wife because that is what she told him when he wanted to go. He wrote the song for his wife when he was trying to make it as a singer. Katie from Dallas, TxI saw them in concert.I think in the last verse, when he is begging the girl to come on home. Sydney from Dallas, TxI really like this song.Chelsea from Phoenix, Az- Katie I saw that video on youtube when Rob was explaining about that the song was directed to his wife, he is such a genius, love all his songs!!.Not sure if that song was written about this.i can't remember when he actually did get married either. She did not want to deal with him being on the road and she was getting harassed by his groupies. He was not married when he was just getting started. Anonymous from Texassomeone said that Rob Thomas said it was about his wife when he was making it big.
