I think it's mostly about having a suspension of time with someone you love where the chaotic happenings outside don't matter. It's very dreamlike. Amazingly awesome song
As for the video, here's a comment I read on youtube from swietygirl:
"a friend said that she thought it was about the whole story of jezus, him comming from heaven and seeing people who are very lost( the two people in the beginning), or aggressive(the boy with his football), or very stupid(the fat woman), or people who are looking for gold their whole lives ect. at the end he faces death and sacrifices himself to safe them."
and perhaps the kids with the sandcastle represent the rich and unthankful, and I don't know why the guy with a metal detector finds a dead duck...
Anyway, that's the best interpretation I have.
