this song is amazing.
what the song means is pretty simple. its about him having been tempted to cheat (or actually cheating) on his wife, and promising her he won't again because he needs her forever.
"those thieving birds, swan plauged pond"- women that surround him that want him and adore him.
"not only liked, but loved as well"- that he's told that he is loved all the time, and im sure it means something when you hear it again and again by masses of people. it effects people, and its effected him.
"Lonely in life
Dead or alive
If the truth had incursions
No more goodbyes
No more big lies
if the truth had versions
As long as you and I are together
I'll hold onto the jewellery
Like staple strapped clenched fist and tongs"
he'll hold on to his wedding ring, as a sign of their love for one another and not let anything or anyone get in the way of that ever again.
could make sense, especially if the "empty nest" refers to the fact that they were often apart and not in the same country, which would make the temptation even harder to resist.
