I look at this song on a much less national level: I just think it's about this woman (maybe in her 40s or 50s) working hard in a small town, and she's become tired of her husband (who is the "you" in the song that's not a "Templar man").
The whole bit about the phantom is the woman knowing something's not right with the marriage, that she doesn't want to be in it anymore.
"Seems as if we're
circling for very
different reasons
But one day the Eagle
has to land"
I think this part reflects how even though they're both in the same marriage, they're looking at it and experience it differently. He's perfectly content with it; she's not. Or something like that.
I could be way off; either way, I love this song. :)
