Lyric discussion by LovingLove 

I think that this song is about two people who love each other. They have problems in their relationship and it makes him want to back out (her thunder makes him run for cover), but they are still crazy in love. They don’t know where to go or what to do with the problems, and they don’t know if their problems mean that they are meant to be together. They keep coming together because they enjoy being together and then they leave each other, wondering what and who will come into their lives besides each other. (Wonder who’s goin, comin' my way) He is talking about how they come together and then separate (tomorrow were turnin' down the highway, with another bright stage, on a weekday the green grass, and a radio, watching it fly past, then away we go) Time will prove what will happen to them (Time is moving on our side) Time is the only thing that will decide whether they are supposed to be together. How can he let her go? He knows that by doing so, she may one day be with someone else. (How could I miss you to another guy) The ocean and the tide is larger than his eyes and his design means that he knows that God designed the ocean and the tide and that God also knows what will happen with the two of them. He knows that Father (God) has a perfect plan for his daughter (the girl he loves) and a perfect plan (for both of their lives) and God is saving her for the guy she will be best with. He is waiting for God to reveal the plan, and what will happen, but only time will tell, and separation is the only way. He will keep waiting because he isn’t interested in anyone but her. (I've waited and I'll wait some more, won't see me knocking on another door) The beauty in the situation is that by letting her go and spending time apart, they will truly see what God’s plan is and if they are meant to be together. (But all this is crazy and amazing) Meanwhile he is saving himself for her. (There's only one half of us that I'm saving) But he wants to let it go and let time apart prove if they can or cannot live without each other, and let God either bring someone else into their lives (700 faces and places means new people and the potential for new lives) or bring them back together. (So I'm praying just to let it go) He is relinquishing control of the situation to God, but he loves her and he is watching “from a distance just to see you(her) glow” while he waits.

This is my life right now. Thank you for the reminder that God is in control and has a perfect plan. I think you got it spot on.

Ironic that some cute lil' atheist I know says "spot on" religiously;) Yup, he's really waitin' on the line to hear from the big guy;) Nice interpretation, but too mushy for me.

I say the band should have concluded by singing cut the cord and watch them fly...in different directions. Hinder and Winehouse about made me vomit. Let's start now...1...2...3...GO!
