S Club 7 - Never Had a Dream Come True Meaning

Never Had a Dream Come True Lyrics

Everybody's got something they had to leave behind
One regret from yesterday that just seems to grow with time
There's no use looking back or wondering
How it could be now or might have been
Oh this I know but still I can't find ways to let...

   I have a slightly different take than some others: for me, this story is about forgiving yourself for being the reason someone left you (the "one regret from yesterday"). Maybe that's, as the song hints, not telling someone how you felt before you'd lost your chance to do so. But S-Club songs are always vague enough that any other regret could be subbed in (cheating on someone and needing to come to terms with that costing you your relationship, not valuing someone, lying to someone, etc. etc. etc.). It's about acknowledging that you messed up, realizing after the fact that the relationship you've lost meant more to you than you had realized or had admitted, and then letting your mistake go and trying to better yourself from it. You're stuck learning how to live with the feelings you had because real love doesn't ever leave you, but you're resigned to that part of your life being finished. It's not about getting someone back, but it's about coming to terms with what someone actually meant to you and then letting yourself slowly move on. You know you won't get the person back, and you're going to have to live with that and grow from it, while holding that mistake you made with you so you don't make it again if you're lucky enough to find someone else who makes you feel the same way.

   This is about when someone leaves you, but you'll always love them. When they're gone, you still think of them. You wish you didn't, but they were the best thing that happened to you. You choose to remember them for the good, not the bad.
