Boys Like Girls: Heels Over Head Meaning
Heels Over Head Lyrics
Gonna cash it right in for a new Mercedes
You were worth the hundred thousand miles
But you couldn't stay awhile
I got your little brown shirt in my bottom drawer baby
And your little white socks in...
-
it's about a girl the vocalist once loved that made him special and then she just left him in thin air. This songs just relates to me so much. :>

"I got your runaway smile in my piggybank baby
Gonna cash it right in for a new Mercedes
You were worth the hundred thousand miles
But you couldn't stay awhile"--Her smile was worth so much to him, she was worth everything to him, but she couldn't stay.
"I got your little brown shirt in my bottom drawer baby
And your little white socks in the top drawer
You were always leaving your shit around
And gone without a sound"-- She always left her stuff around and he kept it, she left.
"Yeah I'm the first to fall and the last to know
Where'd you go?"-- He's the first to be hurt by her but he found out last, where'd you go?
"Now I'm heels over head
I'm hangin' upside down
Thinking how you left me for dead
California bound"-- he's in love with her but she left him for California
"I got a first class ticket to a night all alone
And a front row seat up right by the phone
Cause you're always on my mind
And I'm running out of time"-- he's wasting his time waiting for her to call and he always thinks about her
"I've got your hair on my pillow and your smell in my sheets
And it makes me think about you with the sand in your feet
Is it all you thought it'd be?
You mean everything to me"-- she's everywhere he is, it makes him think of her, he's wondering if she thought she'd be everything to him
"And when you hit the coast
I hope you think of me
And how I'm stuck here with the ghost of what we used to be"-- when she's having a good time, he wants her to remember him and that he has all the pain
"You're burnin' bridges baby
Burnin' bridges, making wishes
Yeah you're burnin' bridges baby
Burnin' bridges, making wishes
You're burnin' bridges baby
Burnin' bridges, making wishes
Yeah you're burnin' bridges baby
Burnin' bridges, making wishes"-- she's ruining what they had and he's wishing for her
"You're a chance taker, heartbreaker
Got me wrapped around your finger
Chance taker, heartbreaker
Got me wrapped around your finger"-- she takes chances and breaks hearts, and he's wrapped around her finger
"Now I'm heels over head,
I'm hangin' upside-down
Thinking how you left me for dead
California bound
And when you hit the coast
Maybe you'll finally see
And then you'll turn it all around and you'll come back to me"-- he figures she'll come back
