Cover art for Sparrow and the Wolf lyrics by James Vincent McMorrow

I agree with jono13. Definitely seems to be about divorce. The kid involved seems to make sense as evident in the first verse with the issue of love in the second. "She turned in to him, begged for the love to remain,but plans have been made, all the furniture sold." The chorus seems to fit this divorce mold as well.
