Who is half of my heart about

General Comment Really, no one got this song but "xoxotinaxoxo"? I thought the song is awesome and pretty self-explanatory. Here's what I got from it: "I was born in the arms of imaginary friends free to roam, made a home out of everywhere I've been then you come crashing in, like the realest thing trying my best to understand all that your love can bring" He was by himself, don't have to worry about anything, go anywhere, does anything.

Then he met her, and he gave it a shot to see maybe her love will change him. The smart half of his heart, which understood this love, and understand that he can't lie to her, and has to tell her that he could never lover her "fully". He was lonely, and then she came, and she shows him that it's possible for him to love, and he would be good at it.

But he wants out, because he feels she deserves more than just half of his heart he's still struggling to get away from his past self , and he doesn't feel right to love her with only half his heart. And the other half of him never learn to love.

General Comment John's and Taylor's voice work really well together. The blend is very subtle. Fiasco on March 08, Link. General Comment Everyone's missed the point: I can't keep loving you can't keep loving you Oh, with half of my heart He can only love her with his WHOLE heart - half the rational half will no longer do. It's all or nothing. Listen to the way it's sung. Interesting take : LyricallyAnonymous on June 08, My Interpretation My interpretation is that he's in love with a girl , who's bad for him.

Like "bad medicine"? General Comment I think the meaning behind "Half of my Heart" is that he hasn't ever fully loved anyone or anything. And he feels that he can only give half of his heart to her, nd he keeps fighting himself to whether really giving himself to her or just half. I think that especially with the "half of my heart is a shotgun wedding to a bride with a paper ring" is a clear explaination that he knows she deserve soo much more than he's putting in, and she deserves more than a "shotgun wedding" which is what he's giving her.

He wants to let her know that what he give isn't good enouugh for her, but he can't because he actually does love her mayermusic on August 14, Link. I understand where you're coming from. I think the key to this song's story is in this lyric: "I was made to believe I'd never love somebody else; Made a plan, stay the man who can only love himself" I think he's speaking of his first real love, and how incredibly difficult it is to recover from giving someone your heart, so to speak.

I have an apparently unusual take on this song due to a prior relationship. I wonder about sexual addiction and "half of my heart" reflecting the foregone conclusion that this guy will not be faithful if and when opportunity presents itself. I think the individual was born to parents who may not have loved one another, hence "imaginary friends," and were maybe neglectful, hence this guy being "free to roam.

I think I'm on the other side of this song. I love this girl my best friend with everything in me, and though she loves me and says so she just can't bring herself to commit to a relationship. She's is a strong independent woman and needs to live her own life, at least right now.

Career, travel, all the things one would hope to experience in life before settling down. I understand this and it hurts and I can tell she wants to stop my pain but knows at the same time it will hurt both of us to just end it completely.

So she loves with half her heart and so then must I. Choosing to love her as a friend and hold on to hope,of something more when she's ready. I would wait eternally for her. But sometimes wonder if I should let her go!

Both loving with half our hearts holding on as long as we can! To me, this song is about a guy who no matter what has always had one foot out the door in terms of a relationship. On the other hand he has met this incredible girl that shows him unconditional love. Trying my best to understand all that your love can bring. We all listen differently, of course. I thinks it's about a guy who doesn't want to trust or belive in love or relationship, may be he was cheated by a girl or heart broken.

But then comes a girl who showed him what a true love is. She loves him truly with all her heart. But even if he love her he can't love her with all of his heart. He wanted to love her with all his but can't. Half of his heart have been drowned by his past life. But he still tries to love her fully. I've been listening to this song quite a bit lately and I've analyzed it to try and understand it. My interpretation is that this guy John has always had trouble loving because maybe he was hurt and it changed his perception on love.

So he learns to live being lonely and he's content with it. But then a girl taylor comes along unexpectedly and she shows him a love he's never seen.

Its alot to handle since its so real and different. Although he loves her he only loves her with half of his heart because he's still got his gaurd up and its hard for him to fully understand it.

She seems to love him with all she's got but he only loves her with half of him, he knows that she'll hold it against him later on hints down the road later on , you will hate that I never gave you more than half of my heart and he seems to know that she deserves more but he can't seem to ever fully love her with all he's got.

I can Identify with this song because i'm in a similar situation
