This song, is about someone who is broken by his love and wants to go back in time. He wants that it is like it used to be.
"And if we could float away
Fly up to the surface and just start again"
Than, he says :
"And lift off before trouble
Just erodes us in the rain
Just erodes us in the rain
Just erodes us and see roses in the rain"
Which means, he wants to go back in time and do it all over, start again, and do it different where it went wrong in the first place.
He also says :
"Like a river to a raindrop i lost a friend"
It's a beautiful sentence to me, he lost his friend/lover really quickly and unexpected.
"The tightrope that I'm walking just sways and ties"
It's difficult for him right now in his situation, he's struggeling with himself because he's so upset about her, he doesn't know what to do. "In my haert she left a whole".
"Lift off this blindfold, let me see again"
He wants to be realesed by his pain, so he can "see" again. He is blinded by pain of this woman.
"The devil as he's talking with those angel's eyes"
She manipulates him, it's so easy to give in, she deceives him and he knows that. But he is still to in love to let it go...
This is one of my favourite songs, and this was my interpretation :)

@henkie98 I agree with your interpretation. See my comment. I guess it's more of the song's meaning for me, not from Mr. Martin's mindset...
