Lyric discussion by dawntreader 

Great song indeed, one of my favorites.

But man, did I butcher the second-to-last line or what. All this time I thought it was [including the other lines in context]:

"The years I spend just thinking Of a moment we both knew A second glass, like an interlude It seems it can't be true..."

I'll admit I'm a terrible lyric-interpreter. I'm not sure exactly what this song is about, but I really doubt it's about being a photographer. Maybe life, experiences, [etc., etc.] and especially meaningful memories inspire the song's writer like a wondrous or spectacular view, object, scene, or what have you -would inspire a photographer.

Actually, you lyrics sound better...
