to all those people who are suggesting this song is romantic then i think you are completely wrong. no matter how you look at this song; a night on the piss with a one night stand, political or newly weds its bascially about ignorance and the "tiptoeing" and "gay ballets" around the truth. hence the line "no thinking for a little while". all to avoid the truth. definitely not romantic |

ok, i don't know why this song doesnt have more comments. it is easily one of the best songs on thier album. in my opinion it is one of the best love songs ever. coz its not corny or cliche but gritty and desperate. as much as you hate to admit, thats how it really is |

i know this probably doesn't have anything to do with the song but i always connect this song to my yr 12 novel "in the lake of the woods' by tim o'brien both are written in ways that leave the interpretation, meaning and story up to the audience so many people relate to this song and interpret it in their own way which is exactly the same as the book plus they have the same themes, tim o'brien's main character has an obsession with his lovers eyes because he believes the world is so much beautiful through them (sunshine) and also there is a huge theme of magic and a 'tricks' to protect someone from the past, his ultimate 'trick' being his final disappearing act with his lover. it quotes in the text "two become one' just like in this song "i'd share a life and you'd share a life" and then finally theres the line "if i could take the fire out form the wire, i'd share a life and you'd share a life" i see as there inability to have children. (wire being fallopian) tube which also the case in the novel haha probably the biggest load of crap ever, but it helped me understand the novel more even if there wasnt any real connection, if you've read the book i think you'd understand what i am getting at |
