A bittersweet number that captures the feelings of a man with an unrequited crush.

The moment you fall in love is blissful, but when things don’t go well, the painful moments start to pile up.

In this song, the protagonist is a shy man who lacks confidence and can’t bring himself to confess his feelings to the girl he likes.

The music video shows the two on a date, but she fiddles with her phone and the conversation doesn’t take off; the man, who started with a smile, gradually looks more and more downcast.

It’s a ballad filled with the bittersweet emotions anyone in love has felt at least once.

Many listeners will probably relate.
