No comments in 15 years and no one giving guesses to the songs meaning, so I'll bite.
I hate thinking every song is a love song, but this truly is. I can relate to it so well. To me, it's about someone with very low self esteem, likely going through some depression. The person never thought they would meet someone that was made for them, but, an angel appears and changes his life. The angel quenches their thirst (thirst for a real relationship) and makes them feel like they are first ("cures" him of their low self-esteem)
The ending is about them, having grown old, the person wonders if their angel still sees what they saw in them when they first fell in love, as they still have the same vulnerabilities and they hope these vulnerabilities have not worn the angel out. I think the last verse is hoping that the person has/can somehow repay the angel for saving their life.
I hope I'm correct. Its fucking beautiful. I want some of these lyrics tattooed on my body.
@ben1010510 You are absolutely on the money mate. It is a beautiful song, has to be his best. I just wish he would play it more at concerts. Such a great song...
