Lyric discussion by Manetherin 

I heartily agree, and the second verse also brings up the idea that sometimes we make our lives too busy and complicated to connect with people.

The third verse is what the author thinks we should do, talk with the stranger we meet and take the time to connect with them and also (I take my own liberty here) help lift them up.

@Manetherin yes the clasp but if we reflect back to the song seal driver at first tull quotes ill think ill make you my seal driver then second let me make you my seal driver then finally at the third stage its time to make you my seal driver tull is playing with the idea lets proove if you can captain my crew he will give you a steady push on a 6 knot shimmering high tide
