I'm surprised no one has commented on this song yet. I always see this one about a guy remembering the good times he had with a former girlfriend. As he remembers all of this, he perversely likes to believe everyone notices him ("nice to believe everyone's looking") even if she has moved on. The ghost imagery seems to be the way he's haunted by how things turned out, whether it's him getting depressed through another lonely night or simply memories he's powerless to change. Either way, as day breaks the cycle repeats. The last lines about nobody waiting punctuates that there's no chance of reconciliation and something about the way they are sung is powerful.
I like the chorus in this song, too. The picture is from when they were together and now they've both changed and life has taken them seperate ways. He hopes that wherever she ended up, it's what she wanted.
