This song was actually written by Jad Fair (credit where credit is due), with music and performance by Daniel, as mentioned above, on "1990"--which is an amazing album. So that kind of changes any Daniel-centric interpretations of the song qua original form, though that is not to say it loses any meaning with Daniel. Laura actually wound up marrying an undertaker, which is a fact that makes much of Daniel's more understandable if you're trying to interpret it. This is an enjoyable cover though. Legrand sure has some pipes and Scally's arrangements on the album are very nice.
