This song is about a guy who is trying to get over a girl he liked. It explains how he met her and how he's struggling to let her go.
There is controversy over whose girlfriend this is about, but the song is about the girlfriend's death, not a breakup. Her death and the boyfriend trying to get over her are indicated in the lyrics, "Deep inside I wish it was me instead." The song was written by Swedish producer Max Martin, and it's unknown if it's about Martin's former love or a former girlfriend of one of the members of the group. Most speculate Kevin Richardson, although it's never been proven.
