  After the correction, the teacher asks the students how they understand the lyrics and what the song is about. Then, the teacher explains what the author really means when he wrote the song. Actually, this song was inspired by true events. Theron Thomas (Adam Levine’s friend) tells his parents’ story: “Our dad was locked up (sent in jail) for five years. And during the time he was gone, our mom held it down. She’d take us to see him. They’re still together to this day. They’ve been together for 36 years. So we thought that that was a great story to write a song about.”
