I think TheSilverNoble is right when he says that the song is about two individuals who used to be lovers but kept in contact and are now experiencing a Harvest Moon together. The line "When we were lovers, I loved you with all my heart" says it all.
You can remain in contact with a lover even though you both have gone your own ways. That love changes from when you were both actually living together and expressing that love with each other but just because you are no longer together does not mean that love is dead. It continues on and a bond can remain for your whole lives.
This song is about when your paths now cross again and the memories of your love together rises to the current moment. They are dancing under the Harvest moon knowing that when the moment passes they will still go in separate directions, either that evening or the next morning but when they do part that love between them will still be tucked away in their soul's back pocket.
