Wow, hard to believe nobody's commented on this song! It's really a beautiful, sad piece that often makes me misty-eyed.
The premise itself is really straightforward. It's easy to see in the song. He loved a woman, things were going great, then something happened. From the sounds of it, maybe he starting drinking a bit too much. Or maybe he just got scared of what he had and disappeared. Only after he's gone, when he's making himself a new start, does he realize what an idiot he was for losing the one thing that helped make him complete. Absolutely awesome song.
