Uh.. after reading through the lyrics a few times I think this is about a guy who is leaving a girl (#1).. maybe driving away after he slept with her? I think in a way he was trying to get over another girl (girl #2)... or maybe he actually still loves #2? But I think the one he was with in bed (#1) really loved him, and he feels bad about leaving but he still has feelings for #2. Like he recalls the times that he was left alone (probably from girl #2 leaving him in the past) and he's beginning to see himself as the same kind of bad person through the glimmer of girl #1's eyes. But the guy thinks that if he can make it home by the daylight he'll be able to sleep and not worry about it.

That's how I see it.
