I think it's about a man who's having an affair with his landlord's wife. Even though there are other things he wants to do with his life and he'd like to move somewhere else, he can't do that without leaving the woman he loves. The affair is getting really obvious and they know they'll be discovered soon, but neither of them is willing to break it off. Even though at night she means everything to him, during the day they pretend they aren't seeing each other and so she means nothing because without her, he's completely unsatisfied with his life. In short, she won't leave her husband, and so the guy's life is going nowhere and yet he can't bring himself to leave her.
