Such a lovely song. It's about someone close to Tyler, someone he cares about and would spend the rest of days with, who sticks with him through thick and thin and their feelings about him remain unchanged. Which is where the meaning can be split two ways: about his wife Jenna or his best friend and drummer of the band, Josh.
I personally like to look at it both ways.
"I need to know/that when I fail/you'll still be here" is my favorite line, and it tells the meaning. Sticking with him when he's having his troubles means the world to Tyler.
"We'll make money selling your hair" makes the most sense to me in Josh's context, since he's known for his brightly colored curly hair that is dyed a lot.
In the end, it's a song about friendship forever, and not necessarily romantic. Just a "I love that you're here to share life with me" kind of anthem.
