I think that this song is about someone falling into depression after breaking up with their girlfriend, and doesn't want to listen to his friends when they try to cheer him up.
Because I've heard all the things you say to me
To hold my head high and pick up my feet
But I think you'll agree
I'm not quite ready to go
These lines show he is receiving encouragement from his friends, and ignoring them as he feels she was his only one. These next lines show he has given up on his old girlfriend, and realized there are others.
Because I've heard what you've said and I figured it out
To hold my head high and just go about
With a smile on my face
Because I know in the end
The sun will come out again
We can look up, we can let go
Yeah, we can let go of this tonight
Because we are alive, and we're not alone
I'm finding love within the light (x2)
The last line, "I'm finding love within the light" also shows that he is now falling in love again, and feels he can give up on his ex.
