Actually, this is more than just believing in someone. It's a specific kind of relationship between the narrator and the person they're talking to. It's about love, otherwise there would be ne no references to "hearts".
The key line here is
"With big intention, still posted at your station
Always on about the day it should have flown."
Which shows that the narrator is the one who wants something from the person, and the person can't give it to them ("too late to start") because they are pre-occupied with something else ("heart in a headlock").
Specifically, the narrator wants a relationship with the person, but the person cannot get into it because their heart is too mangled [from past relationships?], but the narrator still has the patience to wait for them, however frustrating it may be.
