I think the meaning is pretty clear. This person got really burned in a previous relationship, and because of this is unable to love and show care in his present one, even though he so badly wants to. It's lovely song, and very sad. You can really feel how defeated and frustrated he is with himself.
Can you hear the music playing?
Can you feel the rhythm swaying?
This is the sound of dreams come true
And I can promise you that
You are the one and only
And I'm the lost and lonely
We are the perfect dream come true
And I can promise you that
I hear a silly love song in my heart
It happens every time when I see you
It happens every time when I think of you
It happens every time
Oh it's magic when we meet
Baby down on Dream Street
Let me take you by the hand and
Walk you down the Milky Way 'cause
You make me feel I'm so alive
Though I promise baby I
Hear a silly love song in my heart
It happens every time when I see you
It happens every time when I think of you
It happens every time
Oh it's magic when we meet
Baby down on Dream Street
It happens every time, baby
It happens everytime
Oh it's magic when we meet
Down on Dream Street
When I close my eyes
There are angels all around
Singing a love song
You know it happens every time...
When I **see** you
Oh it happens every time
Ooh-ooh-ooh...oh-oh-oh
It happens every time when I see you
It happens every time when I think of you
It happens every time
Oh it's magic when we meet
Baby down on Dream Street
It happens every time...(Baby, oh oh)
It happens every time
Oh it's magic when we meet
Down on Dream Street
Can you feel the rhythm swaying?
This is the sound of dreams come true
And I can promise you that
You are the one and only
And I'm the lost and lonely
We are the perfect dream come true
And I can promise you that
I hear a silly love song in my heart
It happens every time when I see you
It happens every time when I think of you
It happens every time
Oh it's magic when we meet
Baby down on Dream Street
Let me take you by the hand and
Walk you down the Milky Way 'cause
You make me feel I'm so alive
Though I promise baby I
Hear a silly love song in my heart
It happens every time when I see you
It happens every time when I think of you
It happens every time
Oh it's magic when we meet
Baby down on Dream Street
It happens every time, baby
It happens everytime
Oh it's magic when we meet
Down on Dream Street
When I close my eyes
There are angels all around
Singing a love song
You know it happens every time...
When I **see** you
Oh it happens every time
Ooh-ooh-ooh...oh-oh-oh
It happens every time when I see you
It happens every time when I think of you
It happens every time
Oh it's magic when we meet
Baby down on Dream Street
It happens every time...(Baby, oh oh)
It happens every time
Oh it's magic when we meet
Down on Dream Street

@Kahiara Actually I think the husband passed away,
"She sang for you last night
She heard you were calling"
Many people say they have felt, heard, or seen their loved ones after they have passed.
"Don't be scared now
Close your eyes
She holds guard tonight
Go on forward no remorse
Life will take it's course"
This is said to the late husband by a third part (never named), who encourages him to pass on. Because life will eventually continue. The phrase "holds guard" refers to the ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/… ) which is a Christian ceremony held after someone dies. Now it is usually held right after the funeral, but in most celtiic countries the wake is held before the funeral.
"She danced with you last night so you will remember
All you have shared, a lifetime."
This sentence feels as if the only thing it wants to convey is their history together, namely, husband and wife. For the rest it just refers back to the first verse.

Alma Matters
Morrissey
Morrissey
The man has pseudo-friends who constantly criticize his actions. They moralize him, "teach" him and advise him to make a significant change in his life, because the way he is and what he does is not what they say it should be. They may find his life lame or immoral. They hold themselves up as role models. The man replies that he will make his own choices and decisions and he does not agree to unconditionally make himself under the influence of questionable quality advice. He justifies this by saying that there is always someone for whom he will be important, no matter what he does and no matter what he is. Although it is not said directly, I read it as meaning that he will always be important to himself in every way and he will always have his own support.
"Everyone is different and maybe that's a good thing, but you exceeded that mark 1000 times" - I remember very well how sad the words I once heard (from my peers and it was in negative context) at school made me feel.

Chris sided with the producers...
as the result, Dream Street is never allowed to perform together as a band ever again..
