It's about a brakeup most likely because of an uncontraollable situation. In this he is prorayed as a cab driver.
"New York snow this time of year
There's nothing more beautiful to me
Except for you"
He is in love with a girl and comparing her to the snow.
Making my way uptown and down
Seeing familiar places, faces
In my pile of coffee grounds
I am now sure what this is meaning.
"The days are better the nights are still so lonely
Sometimes I think I'm the only cab on the road
Sometimes I think I'm the only cab on the road"
Since the brake up the days are easer to get through but the at night he still misses her. saying that he feels like his is the only cab on the road is comparing how there a lot of people out their feeling the same way but he feels like he is the only one. just like in New York he is not the only cab on the road.
"Watching my breath rise in the sun
Pulling myself in to make warm
Helplessly feel for my phone and drive away"
more about missing her and wanting the warmth back that she gave to him. pulling himself into his breath to feel warm again. and he is still waiting for a call that may never come.
"This new rhythm I pursue
Is just my gettin' over you
Telling myself that I need to"
This is where he is saying why he wrote the song. to get over her like he knows he needs to.
"I'm still looking for a fare, no one said that it was fair To be alone"
still looking for someone else because he can't get over her. and he feels like it is not fair to feel this way.
