Reading the lyrics, I would say it's a love song, yes. But it is also incredibly spiritual. It seems to be from the point of view from a man who's girlfriend has gone missing and died long ago, yet he does not know she is dead although he's given up looking. One night he has a dream about a place he would find her, and goes on an incredible quest-like journey trying to find her. The search for her occupies him until his last breath, then he dies and awakens from the nightmarish reality he became used to on earth, and in the cosmic limbo he finds her. They become one as they always wanted to be, as all lovers want to be, and rise higher and higher until they go into the glowing sun, which is the climax of the song. The ending may be the simplification of thought and the ending of consciousness after the death experience, or being reborn in the next life. I prefer to think the latter.
