I lost my Dad a week ago to a horrible lung desease. We kinda watched him deteriorate over the last few months. He was a very strong person, and never smoked a day in his life. For awhile into the madness the doctors thought there was hope and we just keep waiting for some sort of sign he was getting better. At that time the song had a different meanging. Now that he is gone I am waiting for some kinda of sign that he is still here and is happy where he is. It kinda seems this song describes exactly how I feel right now.
