This is a reference to L. Frank Baum’s book The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, which was adapted into a film titled The Wizard of Oz in 1939. In both the book and the film, the main character, Dorothy, has to click her heels and wish to return home in order to leave the Land of Oz.
Both people in the relationship missed each other while they were apart. Just as Dorothy wished to return to her home in Kansas, the narrator’s lover wants to return to him.
here, let’s establish a wizard of oz metaphor. the wicked witch of the east has green skin, and she also has the ruby slippers, which if heels were clicked with, will transport you home. who is home for the wicked witch of the east? if set in the musical “Wicked” (2003), the wicked witch of the east is Nessarose, sister of Elphaba. there are a few possibilities for who is home, but the most obvious one is Elphaba (the one who turned the slippers magical so Nessarose could walk) or their father (who gave her the slippers).
this is from the Wicked wiki:
the shoes are symbols of what Elphaba has secretly craved all her life; love, respect, acceptance, and family.
The sun rises in the East and, in contrast to the usage of the moon in the song, symbolizes beginnings. Perhaps that of a relationship or simply a reference to youthfulness and joy before longing took hold. Where the writer & the subject only needed it each other.
But also, in The Wizard of Oz, when Dorothy clicks her heels, she wishes to go home(“There’s no place like home”). So the lyric “you clicked your heels and wished for me” may also be saying that the person the song is about is “home” to the author.

Also, Brendon was in Seattle at the time of Ryan’s 21st birthday, while Ryan celebrated in New York with his girlfriend- until he took an impulse flight to Seattle. Seattle is in the northwest, while New York is about as far east as you can get in the US. This line may have been written/contributed to by Brendon, taking place from his point of view about Ryan. There’s been no confirmation of a relationship between them, but if that was the case this line would make a lot of sense in that context.
The previous line ‘both feet and that winding knee’ maybe refers to the fact that the woman is a dancer. She was possibly on the east coast for work. The narrator missed her very much, and ‘you clicked your heels and wished for me’ implies that the woman missed him as well.
