I love this song. To me, it's about the end of a relationship that he thought was going to be permanent. Whenever I listen to it, it reminds me clear as day of when my fiancee and I broke off our engagement.
The whole notion of "somehow here is gone" is the idea that what he believed to be his life was not actually true, and the struggle to cope with the fact that maybe it never was. I hear a narrator who is searching for answers.
