I don't know, maybe I'm taking this song too literal, but the "putting the black book away" part makes me think maybe she was a prostitute? I suppose you could also take it as that she's been in and out of relationships, thinking about the learning names part. I'm not for sure. It's obviously generally about a woman who was very depressed and had a difficult life, and a man ended up sweeping her off her feet and marrying her. It turned out to be the best thing they both ever did, by the sounds of it.

I think it really adds to this song that the singer mentions the misery as well as the happiness to come. You always appreciate love more when you've had nothing but misery in the past.

About the title, is there some kind of hidden meaning or does it just happen to be their professions? If it's their professions, I guess my prostitute idea is out.

Curious..

I'm pretty sure its metaphorical. I think the "dj" is the person telling the story, marc bianchi, a dj, in a kind of vague way, someone who really likes making music or making remixes. the "doctor" is the girl, who heals the dj who is clinically depressed.
