Correct lyrics from the Around the Well CD sleeve: HARD LIGHT TAKE THE WINGS OFF THE WINTER SOFT BIRD THEY WERE STRONG HANDS THAT HELD HER MILES ABOVE GROUND WE CAN'T SEE YOU NOW MORNING TOOK THE REINS FROM THE RIDER STRONG HANDS ON THE LAP BEHIND HER THAT TEAR HER NIGHTGOWN WE CAN'T SEE YOU NOW |

These are good ideas, and I like your first explanation Danyasaur, but here is what I make of this song: "We both agreed on this choice To let me be helpless And she to stick to your voice" This song is about two people in a relationship who have to break up because the woman has a calling from God that the guy can't be a part of. Maybe she wants to be a missionary but the guy can't follow. He is left helpless because they are separated. All he can do is: "Me to my knees everyday I guess" Which means just seek God in prayer. "Trade my will against yours Is something I'd rather say then do" He knows it is the will of God to separate, but really doesn't want to. "She sees the dove Makes me stay and not trespass" The dove could be Jesus, the Holy Spirit, her calling, love for other people, really anything. But whatever it is, it makes him stay and not trespass, which means she is taken away from him by this calling. Anyway, this is my interpretation. Great song. |
