"The lyrics to the song allude to a man's powerlessness in the face of love. The song implies that he wants to go "back to the start". The first lines of the first verse emphasize in an apology: "Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry, you don't know how lovely you are". The song's title also alludes to science in question in verse three: "I was just guessing at numbers and figures/pulling the puzzles apart/questions of science, science and progress." Source: Wikipedia. That sums it up nicely, I think. However, the song's lyrics can be interpreted differently by different people, often reflecting their own situations. It's one of those beautiful songs that can mean whatever you want it to mean - though, personally, I think it's about heartbreak, and a man who was concentrating so intensely looking at the relationship from a logical perspective, trying to figure the girl out instead of just listening to his heart. Which, ultimately, tore the relationship apart.
