I beleive it is a song about growing old and reminiscing about old times. - How great things used to be and how average things are right now.
Also there is a curiosity factor - where are they now? The people that influenced his life. Quite a common theme in people's lives I would presume, thats one of the reasons why the song is so likeable. Although, I am yet to grow old and find out.
Except you and me my friend.
