I really love this song, DATF are one of my favourite bands on Rushmore records. Great lyrics and great music. I think this song is about the end of a relationship and the reflection of the past years and just wondering what the other is doing: "Can you see the sunset from your highway? And can you leave those plans for us behind?" But he's also saying how he's coming to terms with losing her and trying to stay positive by saying he'll move on: "Cause broken hearts they mend, To fall in love again, You won't see me breaking," To me, it's basically about having a hard time trying to deal with hearbreak. Pretty simple.
