i think this song is about sharing a night of passion with a person and then feeling betrayed when that person bolts afterwards. Parts of the first verse seems descriptive of a sexual relation - the "flashing lights" of sexual bliss, the breathing out her faith, possibly in a sigh of ecstasy.
"Pain takes my heart's place.
The love we made, we can't erase it.
Don't want to face it."
The chorus says that a pain has now replaced the love she had. The same love they made that she can't forget but doesn't want to face either.
She is now left with the moral dilemma of having gone too fast into a situation that has left her ultimately alone and betrayed by her own feelings. She has to decide whether to keep hoping he/she will come back or give up and move on and deal with her mistake.
