"Will you love me when I'm old? I'm still hoping I can get that far" he is still hoping that there is a chance for his love, even though there isn't. "The whole town nearly died When rocks flew from the sky"
therefore, he feels the world around him is falling apart. "And I sit outside watching falling stars Playing D minor chords on a Spanish guitar" it seems that he doesn't want to realise it. he seems to be somehow paralised, but melancholic. but sooner or later the whirlwind get him as well... or he is the jailor? dunno. nice lyrics anyway...
