In the music video a couple is seen talking, maybe arguing when the woman gets up to leave and the man leans across the table and asks her to "stay." They are whisked apart and Danny appears trailing an erie cloud of smoke. I think this song is more about all the ways situations make you feel, love is not socializing, young learning, a game, a race, an end, an unrealistic tv sitcom, a place you are trapped etc. He's addressing all these misconceived notions and maybe there's one or several she's been feeling that have in the past made her pull away. But he's reminding her what love isn't and that it's made her want to leave before but he's vulnerably asking her not to go, to try and make it through and stay with him one more day. I feel like its a romantic plea to not lose his love. I think the ghosts in the video are just a spooky touch that is a theme in many of their videos but they are a happy couple together dancing so it may be depicting what working together could be.
