Lyrics
Well he's got the morning glory
Expressing that he has a positive start to the day ("morning glory").
But She's one thousand two hundred and one - miles away

And by the time she gets here
Suggesting that the person is expected to arrive, but it may take some time.
It's gonna be another sad story
Anticipating that the eventual outcome will be sad or disappointing.
He misses the smell of his clothes
Expressing nostalgia for the scent of his clothes when she used to wash them.
When they were washed by her
Highlighting the longing for the specific smell associated with her washing his clothes.
And she misses the smell of his clothes
Pointing out that she, in turn, misses the scent of his unwashed clothes.
When they weren't washed at all
Contrasting the preference for the natural smell of unwashed clothes.
Now they're at war with their distance
Describing a conflict or struggle arising from the physical distance between them.
Right, back, left and forward they don't know

But one must step back into reality
Suggesting the need to face reality and make a decision.
One's gotta go
Indicating that a choice must be made; someone has to leave.
Rescue planes crash too
Metaphorically stating that even potential solutions (rescue planes) can fail or have problems.
Then you need a rescue plane for the rescue plane rescue
Highlighting the irony of needing rescue for the initial rescue attempt.
That was the problem with those two
Pointing out a recurring issue in their relationship, where breakthroughs are elusive.
They would always break before the breakthrough
Emphasizing the tendency for problems to arise before any significant progress.
All these things you never really wanted
Reflecting on unwanted circumstances that have become a reality.
Always seem to come to be
Observing that undesired events or things tend to materialize.
Are now all that you see
Stating that these unwanted things are now the dominant aspects of life.
And all these things you never really wanted
Reiterating the theme of undesired events or circumstances becoming predominant.
Always seem to come to be
Re-emphasizing the idea that what was not initially wanted has become the main focus.
Now they're all that you see
Concluding that these unwanted things now define the person's perspective or reality.
