I agree with venderfan. My interpretation for those lines are that they were only togther for a few days, and even 3 years down the line nothing has ever quite lived up to what he had.
Whilst it's a beautiful song, I personally think that he is wearing rose tinted spectacles, as if it was that great - why did it end? If they were only together for a short period of time, how much can you really know someone in that short a space? By living in the past he is not moving on, maybe it's a useful guise for other issues or inadequacies.
.. by the way, sorry for the emotional transference!
I love this song, definately one of their best.
