Actually, there was this headcanon I saw someone post a while ago that seemed to be like the most likely situation. In the lyrics it says

"I will keep you safe and warm

Like the smell of a rose on a Summer's day

I will be there to take all your fears away"

I think in the song Yang is trying to say that she will protect Ruby just like Ruby's real sister, Summer Rose had. My guess is that Summer Rose probably entrusted Ruby to Yang before she died. I also think that after Summer Rose died, Ruby decided that she would become a huntress herself so that she can be someone like her sister. A Defender of the weak. Which would also support why Yang decided to follow that path first, in order to protect Ruby. But then it also says in the song,

"Close your eyes

Don't you cry

Love's around you

In time you'll fly"

Maybe its just me but this part feels like Yang is consoling Ruby in battle or something, and these are Yang's last words to her because shes trying to protect Ruby until the end, like she vowed to Summer that she would. Ruby is scared that she'll lose the only family she has in her life again. But it also seems that Yang is telling her that she has family all around her. The people from beacon will always be there for her, and theyre her new family.

also...In referral to the line that says,

"If the stars all fall

When there's no more light and the moon should crumble You will be alright

Don't you worry about the dark I will light up the night with the love in my heart I will burn like the sun"

I think that the moon crumbling means something more like it is one result from the enemies actions effecting the world. Making everything turn dark, and making the moon crumble. But Yang becomes the sun in the Night, saving everyone from the darkness. Meaning, it might turn out that maybe Yang will sacrifice herself and/or save everyone from the moon crumbling, because without the moon it might effect everyone in a really bad way, and mean the end for everything.

This is just my theory, but I think the first part of my explanation seems to be the most likely scenario. Well, at least to me anyway.
