Could the song start off any more beautiful? Then the voice he uses is unlike anything I've ever heard before. As for the meaning: in my opinion, a guy loses his love and his life becomes a living hell. Everyday is just a tragic as the last and finally he decided to slice away and join her in "summerland". I take the last verse as meaning even though he'd go straight to hell, he'll break into heaven to be near her and "grace her lips with contraband".
