I also love love love this song. To me however, this song is more about a girl who ends up driving a guy away without meaning to. someone she really loved but was too obsessive over her own insecurities and maybe didn't focus enough on trying to get through it, and letting him in. I think that the driving home line (in all its variations) sort of means an end to the relationship. Like, we can't do anything more than this so let's just end without a fight. and the line "I never said I was perfect but I can take you away" seems almost like her last pleading to fix things.
