I believe this song is pretty self-explanatory, I think he's saying that there is this person that he's in love with (and was previously in a relationship with) that could (for want of a better phrase) make his life better. He's afraid though because of what's happened in the past and also because he’s aware that he could be building it up in his head more than it is. He's now with someone else who just doesn't quite live up to them. He finds himself fantasising about what it would be like to be with them again however he finds that the person that he's singing about is now a faded memory that he’s been fantasised in his mind he can't get rid of.
This man is just the best song writer I've heard in the past ten/fifteen years he has gotten me through some pretty tough times! So happy he's back with new material.
