A woman is reminiscing about her ex boyfriend and how much she misses him. She places a call towards him in hopes of talking and meeting up again. She uses the metaphor 'us and a million miles' to represent how far they've drifted apart and what she wishes to happen between them. She acknowledges her mistakes by saying that its typical of her to talk about herself. This is mostly just a song about how Adele misses a boy and wants things between them to change. By saying hello to a new beginning.

A girl meets a guy and she's pregnant with a child. This guy also happens to be her husband. In the song she's reflecting on how bad of a parent her father was by stating that this new guy is going to be better. The piece by piece part is showing how her father destroyed her emotionally and mentally to pieces. Her husband is taking those pieces and putting them together (metaphorically).

A teenager started dating a girl who was a bad influence. His mother and all the people (who cared about him) around were telling him to break up with her, but he refused because he thought he loved her. He finally sees that shes a bad influence and breaks up with her. He received peer pressure to be with her. These peers were the ones who didn't care about him.
