This feels like she's singing this amidst visiting her dying father in the hospital, which is on Grafton Street. Or maybe in a hospice. He's bed-bound and she's staying long with him while people come and go to visit and pay respects and goodbyes. She takes trips to her car to call her friends for support for herself to relay she doesn't know when it'll be (that he'll pass on).
I love this line: "And time we always lose is finally found here with you". It says all the time we meant to spend with our loved ones is forced upon us when imminent death lay before us.
After he's passed on, there is no more continually visiting on Grafton Street. Via his death, they have made their peace between one another.
