I think this song is definitely about a break up and just telling yourself afterwards that you have to be patient and wait for love. I don't think that the person he has on his mind really exists, but they're more of an idea of what love should really be. Sometimes we have to wait for love.

We can't escape her, so perhaps we should embrace her.
