I don't think this is about lost love in the traditional sense. It seems that he was in love with a woman, they broke up, and now they're back together, but there's no love between them anymore. The last verse I think brings it all together "I always thought if I held you tightly, you'd always love me like you did back then . . . what was I thinking when I let you back in."
