You don't love me anymore, so I'm going to leave you alone. I'm never going to do anything to try to get you back even though I'm dying to... I accept you're gone. Perfect lyrics, perfect music, just Morphine.
Very hard to hold the tears every time I heard this part
"Never gonna walk up your walk
And ring your bell
Feel you fall into my arms"
I've never been able to figure out if the song is implying death/suicide, or if I should take the lyrics for what they say and assume he's really moving on after the sadness of breaking up. With Sandman, it's hard to say. Either way, it's an awesome song.

@elGarzon That last verse has brought me to tears, also.

I actually think this one is much more straightforward than most of his lyrics, though I think, given his clear knowledge of how many ways there are to 'accidentally' encounter some ex lover, that this refers to someone who has passed on. There really IS no chance of an accidental or manufactured encounter. He has to face the fact that she really is "gone for good". Sadness.
