yeah i think she means parting ways though, because the way he sings "drifting away" in the song drifting is really nothing thread worthy.

Eat your heart out, rest of RM!

i love the version from boston in 2003.. the song really builds up towards the end.



i remember reading on here someone posting about the end of the song parting ways.. saying that they liken it to two rowing boats in the middle of the ocean slowly 'drifting away'.
