The chorus is my favorite part, the chord progression is lovely and the words are so moving.
It could be romantic, child to parent, or friend to friend even but it's definitely love, and definitely a life-long kind of love (I'll just assume it's a male speaking to a female to make it easier to analyze).
It sounds like he knows her very well 'cause he knows what makes her sad and frustrated (maybe even things she might not realize), and they have a history of disagreement hence the second verse. And so this song is basically him apologizing and promising to make things right. He might not have realized until now the affection he has for her, which makes more sense of the line "And when you walk inside I feel the door/I'll never let it push your arms no more" if you think of that as a metaphor for shutting her out or not welcoming her in to get to know him better.
But like I said, it doesn't have to be romantic, even if he mentions kissing (and the thought of it being romantic makes me go awwwwww). Some people kiss their close friends and relatives. You could even make a good case that it's about welcoming the presence of God, but you can draw that conclusion for yourself... 'cause that's the beauty of songwriting, good songs tend to be subjective and highly relatable. This song definitely hits the spot.
