I think this song is talking about a true love.
And that even if you find true love, it will not last forever beacuse this is not the nature of the world. Naturally, all thing are bound to end. And when this true love turned out to be mortal (even though he felt like it is immortal), he realizes that from now everything will go wrong.
"How we reach for the arms but only clasp the knees.
How we reach for each other only to die alone.
How we reach for the stars only to swim through the dead.
How we strive to connect only to fall apart. "
and even though all of this bad happens, he never forgets how true their love was. and he knows he will never feel the same- "Just between you and me I felt the rapture in your arms... I think of dying in your arms".
yeah you're right, Waterproof.
