Fledgehog is right - all his theories are right, simple explanation - everything has its begining, its peak, and then everything fades. It is just nature of the things, of everything. Starting from ancient civilizations, through life of a human being, ending with love and relationships. Just as the city appears and grows "telegraph road", economic boom; so appeared the love - "i remember those times...", everything reaches its peaks - "six lines of traffic", "hand in my hair", then everything dimishes and vanishes - "no work to be found", "you seem a little colder", this song is about life and existence of everything, based on a "lifestory" of a city, and guy living in it. And the end - "they" just run away to start something new... guess how it'll end? I think that there's no hope...
And my favorite part is
"You know I’d sooner forget but I remember those nights
When life was just a bet on a race between the lights
