Yes, as many people have said, once he dies, his words or as if he is in heaven. I think that goes without saying. The problem is, he never made it to the first Heaven, which would be the island destination. The plane crashed and he died. Maybe he made it to the real heaven above with angels and such, but the postcard should never have been filled out, because he did not have the information to fill it out yet . He is saying things like he is hanging out there, and people are saying how much they miss her and that they wishe she was there. And he's explaining the weather and everything. Huge blunder. Hard to believe that these lyrics were ever finalized and approved. If I missing something, somebody please let me know. |

The lyrics/story are WRONG. It's a great song, but the songwriter messed up pretty badly. The song writer is saying that he bought a postcard at the terminal where he was leaving to go to his beach island destination, 1. why would they sell postcards there for that destination? 2. Why on earth would he fill the postcard out, before he even gets to his destination and in his postcard, explain what it looks like and that all of the people miss her. HE IS NOT THERE YET! In a sense, it would seem as though he is trying to cover something up, because he cannot write these things, because he never made it to his destination. Its partial bad song writing is what it is. All the songwriter had to do was have the plane crash on the way back home. But they could probably not get the syllables to lineup or the words to rhyme. There is always a way to make it work, the songwriter just hoped that anybody listening would look past it. Sounds like 99% of the population did LOL. Although it was not meant to be that way, I do see why somebody is saying that it sounded like he was going to go cheat on his wife. Because why would he feel out the postcard on the plane talking about things that he sees and what people are saying when he's not even there yet? But that is not the case, it's just a lyric blunder. And you know the plane does not crash coming back, because she gets a call that night that the plane went down. That night, being the day that he left. The plane never reached it's destination. |
