I think it's from the point of view of an old man (maybe BDB thinking about himself when he's older), thinking about the future of him and his wife/partner. It's them coming back to the they first met - 'the place where I first saw you' - maybe literally or metaphorically, and thinking back on their lives together. I think that the 'future's not bright' because they're getting older, and that he's worried he might not be around forever - 'Another funeral, All the people I know, Are beginning to fade away, And I have to say that at least today, It's beginning to get me down'. It seems like they've been together for a long time and are in love, but the future of their lives, not their love, is uncertain. Just my ideas but hey. Might not be right.
It's BDB's partner who does the backing vocals at the end, which is very sweet.
I love this song so much.
