Beautiful song about his mom and family. His parents were high school sweet hearts. They moved out of vegas when he was young cause of a job I think his dad took, and they didnt really want to raise kids in Sin City. That's why I left too. They moved to Utah, where Jackie prob dreamt of a cottage in the country. I also cry when the song slows down, "and we watched as the caravan took your sweetheart away." I love that it's upbeat too, she must have been a wonderful mom and person to have a son...

This is definitely about Brandon's parents, and listening to it just breaks my heart.
Brandon is the youngest of 6 children, so I think the line:
"There's a baby in the bedroom, he's starting to scream She holds him, though he probably won't remember"
Is talking about him, kinda making a reference to himself.
The line:
"But you can't sleep on the account of screaming grandkids"
Is referring to the fact that she had 20 grandchildren! (21st on it's way~ Brandon's Wife is Prego again!)
Anyway, this is my absolute favorite song from this album. Almost better than "A Dustland Fairytale"
