This song makes me think of a man and his girl, saying it's time to end it, but he still wants to be there for her. He's giving her advice and he wants to help her get over him and move on. He's not trying to grow flowers in the desert of their relationship... but he can at least see the sun in the wintertime of struggle that they're going through. He's trying to get her to see it too and remember the good times; Feed off of those good times to stay alive. No matter where she goes, he'll still be with her, reminding her of that.
He does regret all of the strife that this is causing, though, acknowledging that getting out the pain by telling the truth maybe didn't matter as much as much as her feelings. But she can't stay there with all of her hopes shattered... she needs to move on. It's a big country.
