In fact, I think this song is following a conversation that they had - so he fell in love with her, then told her how he felt and she said that they couldn't be together. So the song is saying "We would have been perfect - but it's ok, because we can be friends"
I just think the first verse says this.
I need you to know
This won't be broken
And all that we said
Will not be lost into the dawn
And you would be
The last thing I saw coming
I'm still surprised
