I agree with everyone else...this song has such an ethereal quality to it, it's hard to find a word to perfectly describe it.
My interpretation of the song is that Fiona (or whomever is the speaker) is involved in some sort of a love triangle...being the "other woman" so to speak. She knows that the guy loves her, and that in the end they will be together, but also she knows that she will have to be patient until her man realizes this and can confess and come to grips with the situation.
It's a really sweet song, in my opinion. I don't see how people think it as being a sad song.
