This is my favorite song on the new album and I think it’s going to be great live.
I do agree it’s for his sister. Listening to the intro to sister and this song is very identical.
But like many Dave songs, they can have more than one interpretation. It could be a final tribute to Leroi finally saying bye, since in an interview he wishes he would have said bye to him.
I also think it’s a love song about two lovers who split up for the meantime but know they will eventually spend forever together:
A guy splits up with a girl because he is preoccupied in something else and knows he would not have time for a relationship in this part in his life or is even seeing another woman. He’s torn apart from the break-up, but he knows it must be done. He sees that the girl is an emotional wreak but cannot do anything to help her. But he knows eventually they will be get back together and be together forever.
I like your last explanation...that's what I thought of when I read the lyrics. I'm going thru something similar but I'm the guy in the relationship you mentioned....

This song WAS amazing live.
Dave came out alone for an encore and just stood on the stage with a 12 string and did this song. It was absolutely one of the most beautiful thing I have ever witnessed.
