I think this song is open for many different types of interpretation. I think it could be about a military couple, the one waiting for his/her loved one to return from deployment. They don't know if they want to stick around much longer waiting for them to come home and not leave anymore, or not. A part of them cant let go, they keep holding on. If you read the lyrics from that point of view it makes sense.
When it says "i wonder where you are " and "suddenly you cant be found", for me personally being in a military relationship I really relate to those lines in the song and "missing person's in the window staring at me" because when he's gone you don't know where they could be and the missing person is myself, because a part of me is missing without him, and it seems like they've been gone for years. And the love is all I have, but it brings a lot of pain wondering if/when he will return. Its not a matter for me if I'll stick around because he's the love of my life, but many couples in military relationships always have that thought of will they be here when i return or will they stay true to me. That's my interpretation of this song!
