Yes. I guess it depends. Most people think this is an upbeat song, which parts of it may be, but to me there is a deep, deep sadness to the song. Hence the repetition of the without you stanzas. And all the "happy" parts start out in the past tense, then become present tense as he slips into the memory of what used to be. I guess your interpretation depends on your own situation and it can mean different things to different people.
