Ohhhh, this song... good stuff. I think it's about loving someone from a far. He is confused and frustrated...

I won't go on Believing, believing I believe You might stumble and come closer now

Basically, he's hanging onto this little hope that the person he loves might just stumble (break up with her current boyfriend) and suddenly... fall in love with him. "I believe you might turn from your love."

"If I stay here I'm alone If I go then it will mean Waiting on my own It's the pattern of my life When you care and you cannot feel When you know that it's for real You just leave me on my own To live the pattern of my life"

The girl knows how he feels and still does not go with him... she knows his love is real but she can't feel it. Very sad song, but lovely... exactly why I love Keane.
