Yellowcard - Ten Meaning

Ten Lyrics

I found out in the fall. I've been gone

On the road for a year

She said

"Honey I've got real bad news" and

Then there were just tears

And we would never be the same again

Since then I've often wondered

What you might have...

   I think, perhaps his girlfriend got pregnant by accident and aborted the child. She sure was sad about it, but she felt like being too young to offer the child a bright future. Now the boyfriend regrets it and thinks about how things could have been and that it would actually be nice to have a family and experience the feeling of being loved by a child and caring for your child. He mentions, they probably would have become best friends and that he would have his heart filled with love for his child. So the song kind of tells a "what if"-story, which is pretty much heart breaking.

   There are a lot of things in the lyrics of this song that counter-act eachother. First, if hes been gone on the road for a year, and it takes nine months for a baby to be born, how has he not known about this for three months?

   This song is about miscarriage and the grief of the unborn-child's father - how the soon-to-be-a-father man fantasizes to have quality times with his unborn baby.
