This is where Pink is telling the listener that there is a story that he is going to tell. Then, he says things like "Lights. Where are all the sound effects?", signifying that there will be a preformance. At the end of the song, you can hear a plane blowing up something, followed by a baby crying, thereby maybe showing that his dad died in the explosion.

The title is a referance to [[Vera Lynn]], who during World War II's most popular song was called "[[We'll Meet Again]]". This song might be about how Pink will never be able to see his father again, unlike what that Vera has "promised".
