I have this particular view of this song. To me I think this girls he's singing about is his first love or someone he loved along his youth, but somehow they didn't stick together for some reason not stated in the song, maybe because she moved or maybe because she was always confused about her feelings, but the thing is he has never quite forgotten her. And now, probably after years, she came to visit him and made him remember everything, making latent feelings come to surface again.
He's afraid of nightfall, probably because she'll leave again. And deep inside his heart, he knows it's too late. She's the one he loves, but at the same time she won't be the one that'll spend the rest of lifetime with him as he realizes walking down the hill. Time just passed. She can be married now...although she still gets to him, what makes him ask: "why are you like this, Are you the same with anyone? Save me from my sickness and tell me, Why do you treat me like this?"

Beautiful, yet sad song.
