I agree that it's more likely to be about a friendship than a relationship. Have you ever had that one friend who's always there and who can always make you smile? This song reminds me of a friend I have who's just like that, he's truely fantastic (almost perfect).
(Assuming Justin wrote it)
It's like Justin's saying that dispite their difference in curcumstances him and his friend can still share everything that bothers them, and they can help each other through it.
Though I think that Justin feels he broke up the friendship (presumably by breaking his friend's trust) however he was only trying to help and didn't realise it would go so wrong.
At the end of the day he accepts that things will never be the same, but he still offers to be there for his friend, and whilst the memories of how they were make him happy, the realisation of what they have become really hurts him and reminds him to not make that mistake again.
I'm hoping my friendship wont go the way it appears Justin's did, but if it does, then I hope that we can always remember what we had, as this song suggests Justin does.
