I love this song. When I first heard it, it reminded me of going off to college. Maybe two people in a relationship or maybe even just two really good friends - either way one had to leave and pursue other things in his/her life. They had to say goodbye for now. And as they were driving home they realized the great significance this other person held in their heart. It sadden him/her that after they left, their other half would just keep living their life while he/she was consumed by thoughts of the relationship which once was. Hence the entire chorus which I understand to be like a "just wait for me to come back ... we could be greatness if you can just wait for me" type of thing.
