It's about Nicks reflecting on a lover from long ago, who she keeps seeing, who she's drawn to, whom she almost stalks, really. They both know they shouldn't be together, but it feels like the universe keeps pushing them together and so it's confusing to both of them. She tries to distract herself with the city and her career, living in post 9/11 New York (a major theme in the album, and it's notable to realize that the verse about "costal cites" is also in the song "Illume" which Nicks wrote about 9/11.) But ultimately, they keep running into each other, and there's more and more turmoil.
