This song is kind saddish, a bit nostalgic. I believe it refers to someone who's lived their life, possibly had children, their spouse is dead ("In the twlight hour I am alone" and "love was one prolonged goodbye" are pretty good to prove that point) and all there's left is memories and waiting for the end of their life (the long awaited darkness might be a metaphor for it). And all too soon everything's over, the moment right before the end, the calmness, as if an angel was there.
