I think this is a song about a couple who recently broke up because it just wasnt working out but a part of them still wants to stay together. At the begining she's looking for a light or for a reason to stay with him. Together they dust down the stars and with that any possibility of finding any reason to stay together. It is obvious throughout the song that they still think about each other and that they still love each other but there is a million reasons that they can't be together. The millions of reasons (or stars) have all been "dusted down".
