This is just a great song, one of the best I've ever hear!
I think it's about a relationship in which the two of them, even though they loved each other, was nothing but wrong to each other. Being together made them give up things they really didn't want to give up, and that was what made it end. They blaimed each other for everything that was going wrong, and expressed their anger on one another. And maybe they didn't love each other as much as they thought, but was just, as he sings, looking for somebody to hold, to feel the intimacy of another person. And when that was gone, they didn't have much to stay together for left.
