What a song! Completely gorgeous. I catch myself looking at the cd player to see how much time is left, hoping it won't end soon.
I'm not sure, but I think the whole EP might be the story of a breakup. This would be the final song, after it's over. Most of it's fairly self-explanatory. He loved her and still does ("I keep your picture on the wall"), but is too much of a wanderer to stay. She tried to keep him, but it was doomed from the start. And he doesn't want to forget her ("linger on")
I know this story too well. Happened with every girl I've loved.
