The song is about a breakup. The narrator is giving someone to their partner as a goodbye gift.

Some reflection about the relationship is done - singing together, provoking different sorts of emotions (perhaps sadness, anger, resentment to due the broken promises)

The narrator loves the other person. Their love was formed quickly, and "easy go" is a cope to keep the other person calm. "Don't let me down" - just take this gift because I appreciate what we had, but it's over now.
