In this song, Lennon talks about how getting over her break up with someone that cheated on her would have been easier if she had “bad signs” in her relationship. When you break up with a person there are usually signs before the relationship ends that it wasn’t working out, especially having had the other person cheating on Stella, but that wasn’t the experience. Lennon recounts that, in reality, she was being treated the way she would want to be treated in a relationship and she didn’t notice anything was wrong until she found out the other person was cheating on her.
