@[PoeMax:7781] This song has been in my mind since the first time I heard it..what, 45 years ago. I think about it a lot, but I have to say I disagree with your analysis, being from those days myself, and having watched the video of him doing this song in 1971, while blazing on acid......."come down off your throne"--stop being so stuck-up and holier than though......"leave your body alone"---get natural, stop being fake......."you are the reason I've been waiting so long"---I've been hoping you would get it together for a long time now so we can have a real relationship......."somebody (her?) holds the key"......."but I'm weary and I just ain't got the time"---I can't wait much longer, I'm getting tired of holding on......."and I'm wasted and I can't find my way home"----not Dude, where's my car, more like, I'm wasted (literally and figuratively)and can't figure out my life, and where home is (see All come to look for America, S and G)--we were the lost generation who saw beyond our parent's 50s empty lives, but didn't quite know how to take our more enlightened state and find peace within it....."come down on your own"---you have to do it for yourself, nobody can enlighten you but you. Its one of the best songs of the 60s, actually. One my friends and I always have loved a lot. |
