This song is about someone who's lover is gone. Somethings in the song make me believe his lover has died, others make me believe the lover just left him.
For instance, "rain comes rushing down to resolve your love for this man" seems to me sybolizes someone cryin from above letting them know they still love them.
The "chill wind" in the air also goes with this. As if a ghostly figure is with the person still on earth. The who was here? or am I just dreaming part? Just goes to show someone is missing that he never expected back but now believes is around(somehow).
The part about the cathedral adds to the fact that his lover is gone(either way) but it could also have a double meaning since gays aren't allowed to married, at least in the UK where Andy Bell is.
I tend to believe his lover has died. The whole thing with the rain pretty much confirms that I think. Great song.
