I love This Day and Age, but there lyrics never really make much sense to me. :]
I think the guy wants another chance, but they both have personal demons, he just wants to give it a try, he doesn't want to come out of the relationship wondering what could have been.
As for the 'We've come to far just to set our eyes on a new star' part, I think he's talking about the relationship has gotten somewhere, and now she's just leaving, with a whole different goal or a whole different guy.
