The song is pretty self explanatory. He thought he would be with this girl forever but things didn't go as planned. Even though he loves her, he knows that staying with her will only hurt her more. He has to leave her in order to find what it is he's looking for. I think this song captures that feeling of not wanting to leave a person, but knowing that you have to, and the emotions that come with not knowing how to do it.
