Thimble island is an actual place off the coast of Connecticut (or somewhere in that region, at least) and tourists sail around it. This song is about a girl who's going on a cruise there and hoping to find love. It's cool- I like the verse that goes "I've not heard of girls returning" etc but I don't quite know how that realtes to the rest of the song- still, exquisite lyrics as always from Rasputina!
