in my opinion the song talks about a boy who fell for a girl who is gone now, so he misses and every time he sees a girl, he think it's her, but she's not. about the taxi thing, it may be a taxi or not, maybe it's just a friends car, and the smell of the girl is around so he doesn't want to arrive home just to breath that scent. the lines "tell me where's your hiding place... along" are pretty obvious, he wants to know where the girl is, and not to forget her face because he is beginning to think he's imagined her. lovely song by the way, probably my favourite from humbug. & sorry for my english..
