What I got immediately from this song is that they man was a veteran who had just returned home from war and was getting used to civilian life. I don't know if anyone else sees it that way, but from me this song spoke to me through that tone. But the man is telling his wife don't worry I'll be ok it's just taking time to get used to and I'll be the me you knew soon. The first verse where she is on the phone saying that he's home but she still feels alone was a giveaway to me. When people come back from war their families and friends notice that sometimes they aren't the same person who left. My parents were both in the military and my mom said she wouldn't have gotten through my dads deployments without their strong relationship. She believes that if they can get through being apart for the beginning of their marriage they can get through anything.
