I agree that this is a metaphor but I think she still dies. She helped him through difficult times and they fell in love.
I have two ideas about the meaning to this though:
I think she could have commited suicide. Either she went through something difficult and he didn't help her or she didn't tell him and she couldn't take it anymore. With all the references about the ocean, I would say she drowned.
Or
She died when they were most in love. Probably murdered. The storm could be when they found her but then:
'He watched her hand break through the surface once
Then disappear again'
There was a moment where they thought she might live but she didn't.
The whole way through the song he seems to love her and when she dies, he loves her even more.
He says:
'Someday not far away from here
My dear, I swear I'll see you'
He believes his love for her will bring them back together one day
'And we will hear the seraphs cry
For they will still envy you and I'
He believes even the angels will be jelous of the amount of love they have for eachother.
In my opinion, this song is beautiful, a great metaphoric story of love and death <3
