This song is indeed beautiful and Michelle Branch on backing vocals just adds to that beauty. It's a very mellow pop almost country type song that from what I understand is about a person being unable to let go of someone or something that is troubling them and "waiting" for either a resolve to whatever is troubling the person or things to simply fall apart causing the person to figuratively speaking wither and die.
