This seems to be a song about unrequited love. The narrator is lamenting the sadness of a woman he has always loved and wanted. Unfortunately, she committed herself to another man who already had a long list of broken relationships (always ending on his terms).
Members of the family stand by as they watch her relationship with this man coming to an end as well. Although they are judging her for her naivety, the narrator still feels love for her and is hoping that she'll finally notice him before it's too late in life.
