Though now i fully support the view of the second comment, for me due to some wonderful selective perception for a long time it meant something completely opposite (ironically, I would like to keep my previous impression, but now I can't)
It was a song coming from a man who some time in the past experienced romantic disappointment and came to the realisation of how fragile Love is and maybe how impermanent He is. A song from a man who's lonely heart had been wondering for a long time eventually coming at rest near someone who he adores, but only from a distance. And soon almost fatefully that someone turns out to be in love with him too. And now as their delicate dance is inevitably pulling them closer and closer to each other there comes this fear of endings and disillusion, that the beautiful and keen fantasy, his muse, would vanish and leave after only the steam of ordinariness and a couple of another faint hearts.
