No comments? Really?

Unfortunately I have no idea what this song means (obviously some lost/unrequited love), but I know I lovelovelove it.

Why shouldn't he look by the maple? I'd love to know.

Might "the maple" have something to do with Canada?

This song could be about leaving Canada (the pilgriming vine) and moving some place warmer, maybe in the United States. Perhaps there is some pressure for her to leave Canada to be successful musically and she's dealing with that and maybe leaving someone she loves. Just a thought.
