He is saying that he can’t marry her because she isn’t fully committed the way he is..he knows she has doubt so he tells her they should take a break and he’ll wait for her to love him the way he loves her. It’s sad. He tells her to go find another man so she can see that the way he loves her is special. Andrew Bird covers it really well.
One of my favorite love song. Maybe my favorite love song.
A friend sent me this just recently . I have not stopped listening to it. Amazing
Will Oldham is a Genius. ❤

Epic
On a par with Nick Cave, Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen etc.
What does this song mean? Is he with the woman he sings to?
I'd like to think so, but I also think it can be interpreted otherwise.
It's open to interpretation. He sings the words of love swaying back and forth and moving like a breeze. Keep the love moving with a little effort
I think he is wanting to be loved completely and yet without a lot of Illusion or attachment. And he realizes he is being very lofty
