I don't think the song is necessarily just about love but also the feeling of social anxiety and isolation, the feeling of being misunderstood completely, but I think it also is about remembering the awe of the universe itself, and that other people live lives just as complex and detailed as your's, and may be surprisingly similar, regardless of their location, ethnicity, race, sex, etc.
"All moving at the speed of light"
This is a perfect line. It shows us how often time passes us so fast. Have you ever said "wow, that passed really quickly" or anything similar like that? That's exactly what it's referring to.
"Reflecting in each others eyes"
I think this is also a line that references how quick we are to make assumptions about people. We often generalize people and categorize them into certain groups or stereotypes, yet not so often do we learn about their real life experiences, their personality, etc. We don't ever think of the struggles they might've been in. We never really get to learn them, or why they do what they do.
"Such a beautiful view"
Reminds me of staring at a city skyline, or a city street, or any kind of place where people congregate. Have you ever wondered what those people's lives are like? I think it implies the person wishes to know those people more, and those people know him/her more.
