I do not know what this song means for the writer but for me when I hear this I can't help but think of the loss of a precious one. It could be due to death or just life pulling them away.
They were so dear to them and now they're gone. The thought of them brings on waves of sorrow and they struggle to be happy. Keeping their lanterns lit makes me think they are hoping the lost one will find their way back to them... but they're gone.
