I think its about losing someone, and knowing its going to happen but not quite being able to bring yourself to say it. My best friend broke up with his girlfriend of a year, and realising that it just wasn;t right anymore, and i remember him saying it this is the part that he could really relate to:
The word's goodbye but I can't say it
The end is close at hand
I think we understand
There ain't no use trying to delay it
The part about the end is close at hand means deep down they both know they can;t go on, and there isn;t any point trying to delay it or put it off anymore.
The line that really meant something to him though,w as the "the words goodbye but i can;t say it", meaning that he cared about her so much, and just couldn;t bring himself to say goodbye but he knew he had to.
amazing song
