This is a song about Homer Joy - a criminally underrated songwriter in the country-music genre, who wrote the hit song "Streets of Bakersfield," and a whole lot of other songs. Though it's also generally about a man who led a troubled life and tried hard to walk a straight and narrow path. Like so many of us, sometimes he stayed on it, sometimes he veered off.

This is a typical love song, a guy singing about a girl. The idea of this song is that he's in love with her all the time, all day, every day, and with everything she does.

This is a weird lyric I'm not even sure the real meaning of it. I just know that for so many years I turned to drugs to find peace which is an oxymoron. I never took the word no for an answer in just about everything I did. I only wanted to hear yes, or thought that I could do anything. I realized today that no is an answer, and some things are just out of my reach. I definitely realize today that drugs was not the answer and I should have said no.

This is a lyric about two people in a relationship where one is so critical of the other that it's absolutely ruining the relationship. The person asks can't you just say one good thing about me? All they have here is the negative, constant criticism, and being put down. It's gotten to the point where the other person can't take it anymore and the relationship is in jeopardy.
