He's found someone he loves (or maybe SOMETHING he loves), but is afraid of ruining it because of his inability to stop moving around and commit to her (or "it"):
"It scares me just to think
That something so beautiful

Again, he's had the habit of looking for adventure/joy/fulfillment all of his life, going places on a whim ("I followed my heart everywhere"), but has never found what he was looking for.
Or, if he did, it took him back to this girl/thing that he's afraid of hurting or losing: "Until I ended up back; Where I started from".

I love this song, and here is my attempt to analyze it. Sorry for the unorganized way that I've approached this--I've tried to include quotes/lines from the song to direct my analysis (to make it easier to follow).
He is unable to settle down or be content with his life, so he "chases rainbows" and "stares out of classroom windows" (looking for other places to be, where he thinks that he will find contentment). But, despite his searching, he's never found it. However, he feels happiness while he searches ("happy hugging my grudge"-->accepting the unhappiness he's bound to have if he doesn't become content with what he's got).
