This song is about a man who leaves his girlfriend/wife, even when she wants him to stay.
"She's in a long black coat tonight
Waiting for me in the downpour outside
She's singing "Baby come home" in a melody of tears
While the rhythm of the rain keeps time."
There was once a period of "sweetness" as the lyrics state, but in the end, the man doesn't know if he really loved her or if he just wanted someone to keep him company.
"Did you ever love her? Do you know?
Or did you never want to be alone?"
That's my interpretation... the lyrics and song title seem quite melancholy, but sadly (no pun intended), the melody doesn't really seem to match.
