Love Song

This song is about loving your creativity. The girl is his creativity. Yay syd... great song :)

Oh no no it's not. It's about quantum love and finding and loosing the one you're here for.

And in the last line it's - bigger suprise.

The instrumental version off the extended Barrett (without Gilmours overdaubs) is the only one - that really is the greatest. Simplicity is a songwright named Syd.

Or it's about how loving someone can help you to see the world in ways you never did see. And why not creativity? Why you're feeling some much emotion for someone, don't you become creative? In the words of Plato, "At the touch of love, everyone becomes a poet." So is there just one answer to every question? No Yes Maybe.

Most definitely a Love Song...sweet, simple and emotionally complicated. That 'bigger surprise' might just be a stork coming in for a landing.

That aside, this is a great example of a song that improved with additional production. The version of Syd strumming on guitar is great but when the piano is added with that light, lilting tone....magic. With the rhythm, chord progressions, etc., this is a love song that approaches perpetuity. This is a song that can get 'stuck in your head' and keep going ad infinitum but not in the annoying way. It allows you to compose the next.
