Whether or not Murphy will answer the question, this song is about losing someone you love. Not to a breakup, as everyone on this site seems to think a potentially sad song is about, but to death. The line, "But nothing can prepare you for it / the voice on the other end." Sounds like someone in the hospital. It's a beautiful tribute to someone.
