Hrmm, interesting getting the official meaning....When I first listened to this song I swore it was about an open relationship. Someone offering to be a refuge of support. selflessly. Succor and understanding seemed to be the underlying current to me, and the song is being sung to someone panicking under the noose of commitment perhaps marriage.
I am inching closer to my thirties, and have had many bouts with anxiety, the idea of running out of time, or not doing what I should be doing. (whatever that is) can be very crushing. The lyrics of this song in that context has been a real salve to me. Music can be very healing.
