I think this song sounds like it's for a mother-figure. At least that's what it makes me think of. It brings me nostalgia for my parents, specifically my mother, and my home. Beautiful-- the kind of song that really makes you stop moving forward and sort of suspend in the present to feel strong emotions.

That or a sister, doesn't really seem like a relationship involving physical love.
