Sounds like a paean for an old love ("embers of sadness still glow, something hasn't quite flown" - Annemari perhaps?) as the singer leaves it behind for a new love (Beth?). Slowly, his new love is becoming the rock his world is built upon ("I know you won't let go of the string"). His new love understands his previous feelings. His hurt. His now receding life. No jealousy, no anger. Simply compassion and understanding. Too beautiful for this world.
