This seems to be about how a past relationship affects a new one. She's found a new man, but still wants her old love back. She doesn't picture herself marrying the one she's in a current relationship with or feels the same amount of love. All they do is fight. He leaves her a love note, but she wants the note to be from her former love. All the promises he makes to her remind her of the broken promises and lies the other told her. He is affectionate but she is distant. She keeps reminding herself that he is a good man. She should love him. Finally he confronts her and talks to her about their relationship. He can see how much pain she is in and how she still has something for her past love. And yet he still doesn't rebuff her.
She wants to let go of her former love. She keeps telling herself to let go. Because he took all of her "gold". Now she feels empty and has nothing of value to offer.
