In the song, the narrator is addressing a woman who has been suddenly abandoned by her lover for another woman. The woman is heartbroken, but while driving around town to clear her mind, has an ephiphany: she can live without him. One day, her old lover calls her (apparently wanting to get back together), but she informs him that she's moved on.
