Lykke Li – I Follow Rivers Lyrics 14 years ago
Here is another look at it

The song is a generic opinion on what it means to be in a relationship.
In life one or the other person of a couple will often have to follow his own path, and the other's mission is then to support them and "follow them" however they can. That could be about just anything, including jobs, phycological issues, aspirations, life long dreams of a person... etc.

In the video the woman follows along for the ride as her man pursues a matter personal and very important to him (doesnt matter what exactly, but it represents his liberation from problems or limitations as shown by the dangerous but infinitely free sea on the background).

Also in the video the man fails to succeed in his endeavour but then thats what the meaning of their relationship is: the woman followed and is now able to soothe him. But at the last few seconds we see the woman looking intently at the sea: this either means that her own personal voyage will now start (and the roles will be reversed) or depending on how you interpret it she decides to tackle the unsaid obstacle only this time together with her mate.

Either way we don't have to make it more concrete and specific than that. I think the video is about feelings of trust and loyalty, and altruism that a relationship should be about - not just a story represented metaphorically.
