I think that aderyn is on to something with the "wake up" background vocals. Maybe it is only a dream, but is it the dream of the sleeping partner or the one that is leaving? Maybe it is also a cry out for the sleeping partner to wake up and stop the leaving partner from making the mistake of running away from his lover.
