The song seems like a metaphor for a short lived fiery relationship. The sea and its tide is the feeling of love, the cove is the reality in which it lives, the wind is the pacing and movement as they're in each other's presence.
The story tells is like it's an adventure, and where "fisherman working at night, not even once did we see a light" indicates that though others were around, no one paid attention to what was happening - perhaps it was an affair.
The line "Marathon how long we've been gone and still not yet set foot upon you" seems to indicate that there was no need for acquainting each other, yet it follows "your low lying shore opens welcomingly to one who's spent the night at sea ... through a bridge that is never closed" seems to indicate that the fling returns in the presence of one another so easily.
