I don't think this song is about drugs or alcohol. But i do agree that this song can be interpreted for anyone who has been hurt.
I agree that the song is very beautiful/poweful. Be sure to watch the "live on the moon" version, really breathtaking :) It give me shivers!
My interpretation:
And to stay in the example: a serious relationship that has been broken.
"I know places we can go babe" -- Telling the hurt person to trust the speaker. The speaker is a kind of peaceful person that can give the hurt person certain kind of feelings of calm and security to heal the wounds.
"The high won't fade here babe
No the high won't hurt here babe" -- The high, meaning the happiness and joy of being in a relationship
"Don't ask me when but ask me why" -- The real question the hurt person should ask is why the speaker want's to take him/her to "places". As the question not literally describes a place but a feeling. Again, to heal the wounds.
"Don't ask me how but ask me where" -- Again, the question is not literally describing a place so where is as a figure of speech, the hurt persons wounded heart.
"There is a road, there is a way" -- Remember, Always, there is a way for being happy again, to feel secure.
"Coming home, come unfold babe" -- Healing the wounded heart, coming back to being a positive person. Come back to the feeling of being pure happiness.
"So come lay and wait" -- Healing takes time.
"Now won't you lay and wait
Wait on me" -- The speaker can/will help the hurt person to heal.
