To me it seems like the speaker is the one broken up with and he is obviously really despondent about it. He finds himself in a quiet reflective/meditative state, such as sitting by a pool and feeling the wind. It seems to me that in this state of meditative reflection, the wind represents a very universal, transcendental, spiritual breath that envelopes him. This is a very literary interp. that harkens to Romanticism. He realizes that even in this state of meditative reflection, and even with perhaps the advice from others to "cheer up", he is restless and maybe realizes he will never be able to be a rest about the situation, because the love he had was "another kind", the kind that you only find once, and he has lost it. This song very much relates to "Reprise"
