"Cornelia Street" is expressing the deep emotion felt by two people in love and how they deeply yearn to stay together. The story starts with the two of them in a car with the narrator renting a place on Cornelia Street and wanting to start something new. The chorus speaks of the narrator's hope to never lose the person they are with, and that if the person ever leaves the narrator, it would be a kind of heartbreak that time would never be able to mend.
