For me, I feel that this song is about a couple that was falling apart, but, somehow, they get things together and fall back in love with each other.

The Cinders: the burning of what they had and built. The destruction of what once was . . . yet, somehow they have come to clear the way(Light the path) for them to get their things in order and get back on track with being back together(take us back).

A very beautiful song, and, like the others above me, it's my favorite track from It's Blitz!

Exactly what I was thinking.
