It think we may consider the meaning of this song whit the last sentence. ''Our reasons are lost in our rhymes'' I don't feel he say ''eyes'' It's a bit tooo easy going that way and Greg Lake was a refine guy and a poet, so ... I think this song is a romance, about having partners to share music, rhymes, life, etc. This last line solve everything. This is an ode to his friend that he spent so much time doing music with them. If you consider what is to create an album and record it, theses 4 lines appears really clear to me: Come share of my breath and my substance and mingle our streams and our times In bright infinite moments our reasons are lost in our rhymes Breath is the singing , the substance is the soul the streams are the soundwaves, the melodies, the times are the tempos, the infinite moments refer to the act of recording on a disk music for almost forever, and at least if we ask : '' why do you do music ?'' well all the reasons are losts in our Rhymes. What do you think about this potential explanation? |
