definately seems to me a meeting between a man and a prostitute. They are strangers, neither really looking at the other. And, probably for both, home is a long way away. (traveling business man and run-away turned prostiture). The singer is giving the advice to "keep your hat on your head" meaning keep your clothes on. And I think that advice is to both of them.
"I'd like it here if I could leave and see you from a long way away" refers to both parties disconecting themselves from their interaction.
