I don't know what I've done
Or if I like what I've begun
But something told me to run
And honey you know me it's all or none
There were sounds in my head
A little voice is whispering
That I should go and this should end
Oh and I found my self listening
'Cause I don't know who I am, who I am without you
All I know is that I should
And I don't know if I could stand another hand upon you
All I know is that I should
'Cause she will love you more then I could
She who dares to stand where I stood
See I thought love was black and white
That it was wrong or it was right
But you ain't leaving without a fight
And I think I am just as torn inside [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/m/missy_higgins/where_i_stood.html ]
'Cause I don't know who I am, who I am without you
All I know is that I should
And I don't know if I could stand another hand upon you
All I know is that I should
'Cause she will love you more then I could
She who dares to stand where I stood
And I won't be far from where you are if ever you should call
You meant more to me then any one I've ever loved at all
But you taught me how to trust myself
And so I say to you, this is what I have to do.
'Cause I don't know who I am, who I am without you
All I know is that I should
And I don't know if I could stand another hand upon you
All I know is that I should
'Cause she will love you more then I could
She who dares to stand where I stood
She who dares to stand where I stood.

Your love taught me to love myself. I had to go away from you to do what i was meant to do. I am jealous of anyone who dares to hold you, the way you deserve. It would never be good enough. I love you. That could never change.

She's basically saying that she loves this person more than anyone, yet she knows it's not meant to be. The chorus sums up the entire meaning of the song.

She didnt cheat. She loved someone she never had and after all she put in to it- she lost him to someone else. At least thats what i think.

It means she lost someone she loved and she doesn't know if she could take that person loving anyone else besides her.
This song is about a relationship she had with another woman you can tell if you really pay attention to the words. Women love other women more deeply than a man an a woman the feeling are stronger more emotional just differen and these lyrics obviously state that
I love this song and it is very beautifully written.. Love, depression, jealousy? Is what every person wants to secretly hear in a song because its what everyone secretly or not secretly feels and bam there you have it, fabtabulously composed by missy higgins. :)
I also think she needs to be independent and find out who she really is as her world revolves around him and she has lost herself in the process. She loves him but needs to find herself and knows he needs to move on and not wait to see what she finds. She needs to accept that he will find another so she can go find out who she is.
It's obvious to me that she cheated on him, and she doesn't know how to get out of it. She is trapped in her life of sin, and she sees no way out of the situation. The voice in her head was satan whispering to her, and she listened. She now realizes the mistake she made, but she feels it's too late. The other girl has yet to come into the situation, and she hates the thought of him with another woman. She thinks that there is no way he can trust her again, and so he would be better off with someone else.
