An 8 year relationship, that has been through many ups and downs and multiple break ups. Depression, cancer, mental illness have all been factors. Through everything, they still love eachother but there are so many barriers that make the relationship extremely difficult.

But he can't get past those barriers, and ultimately they need to be apart in order to fix themselves before they can fix the relationship.
Song Description
We know that love isn't easy. People change and relationships go through major turmoil. The love is still there but sometimes you have to walk away to know what you're losing. This song is about wanting to be there for someone even when they push you away. They leave and eventually come back to you. You think the relationship will be stronger having had some distance, and it is for a while... but the same habits keep occurring and eventually the cycle repeats itself.

Lyrics
I can see it coming
We've been here before
What could I do
To stop the revolving door
Same old Habits
same old mistakes
I have my limits
How much can i take
I know you're torn up inside and want to hide again
Let's re-write this story and see it to the end
Cause you're here today
Will you be gone tomorrow
I should just embrace the pain, hoping you'll be back again
Cause you're here today
Will you be gone tomorrow
Love is not an easy fight, you and I can make it right
You're here today
Why don't you stay
Do you want to miss me
Wanna make things hard
Cause the sun is brightest
When you come out of the dark
How can I help you
What else can I do
To stop the darkness
From getting through
I know you're torn up inside, but not beyond repair
The story's not over yet, we'll make it to the end
You can't just bury it, smother it
And leave me in the cold
You can't quit on me, abandon me
And take all the control
I know we can change, it's not too late
I'm not losing hope
Love's not lost
Cause you're here today
Will you be gone tomorrow
I'm not giving up on you, so what are you gonna do
Cause you're here today
Will you be gone tomorrow
I should just embrace the pain knowing you'll be back again
Cause you're here today
Will you be gone tomorrow
Love is not an easy fight, you and I can make it right
You're here today
Why don't you stay
