I believe the song is about how we all have an image in our mind of the perfect partner, and how that same image makes us chase after different partners in search of a match to that perfect image in our mind leaving us deeply unsatisfied and lost.. And regardless of whether we settle down for someone, we would still love that image secretly "in our dreams" and not reveal it to anyone. A grand illusion that never becomes a reality.
