i just got the new album and right now this is my favorite from it. The lyrics are amazing, up there with Krug's best. I love the line "you are a fast explosion, and I am the embers" |

The "Im afraid of the sky, Im afraid of the water" lines really made me think the songs is about a long-distance relationship. Also, i always heard "do you understand what im pining for", but "fighting" could also make sense. Also, given the fact that bewers42 said the song was about having a girlfriend in japan.. well, if this girlfriend was from when spencer lived in b.c. then there would have pretty much been nothing but the pacific ocean between them. And i intpret it almost as if he was blaming the ocean for keeping them so far apart. as for the "If i fall into the drink" line, well he says he is afraid of the sky and of the water, and therefore afraid of falling in and sinking on the way to trying to be together. It could be taken literally as in being falling into the ocean in a plane crash, but I also see it as figurative, suggesting a fear of making a leap and commiting to being together, |
