This song talks about a few things. The first part could be referring to something he did to someone. They may have found it hurtful, but he never meant for them to feel that way, and that over the years they should realize that by now.

The rest of it talks about how what you're looking for is right in front of you. We work our whole lives thinking that it'll build up to something, and we use working as an excuse to getting us there, but it's really been there the whole time. That's what it means when it says Don't look the answer from horizon. Our whole lives we always think we need to look ahead to the horizon. There will ALWAYS be a horizon, and you can never get to it. What you're looking for is right there.

It's called and it says in the song Years Go By because years go by and you never know when it's too late to do something, hence the line in the song. To reiterate: What you're looking for is probably right there. For example, let's say you want to be a musician. Become one. Write songs and get out there. You don't always need to go to years of music school to be able to do it. If you do things like that for everything, years will go by and it'll be too late to do it.
