its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
The fields are near and I won't trust the air with secrets
I can't stop holding this treasure in my arms
For all the water in the ocean could never turn
This swan's legs from black to white
Let them say, let them say
Let them say what they please
You won't be leaving my arms ever, I promise you that
Even if you want me to let go, honey
Even if you want me to let go
You won't be leaving my arms ever, I promise you that
Even if you want me to let go, honey
Even if you say the things that make me want to lose you
We went on drinking, celebrating something
I looked at you and said that I'm forever yours
You looked at me and said, oh, the idea of being in love
The idea, the idea of being forever yours
You won't be leaving my arms ever, I promise you that
Even if you want me to let go, honey
Even if you want me to let go
You won't be leaving my arms ever, I promise you that
Even if you want me to let go, honey
Even if you say the things that make me want to lose you
Screaming from the inside of me, a lonely and pleading phantasm
We only get what we see, gazing so desperately
Between the things that we fear, gazing so desperately
Elaborate delusions, we're watching segregating illusions
Between the things that we see, and the things that we fear
No, no, it won't make them disappear
You won't be leaving my arms ever, I promise you that
Even if you want me to let go, honey
Even if you want me to let go
You won't be leaving my arms ever, I promise you that
Even if you want me to let go, honey
Even if you say the things that make me want to lose you
Even if you want me to let go, honey
Even if you want me to let go, honey
Even if you want me to let go, honey
Even if you want me to let go, honey
I can't stop holding this treasure in my arms
For all the water in the ocean could never turn
This swan's legs from black to white
Let them say, let them say
Let them say what they please
You won't be leaving my arms ever, I promise you that
Even if you want me to let go, honey
Even if you want me to let go
You won't be leaving my arms ever, I promise you that
Even if you want me to let go, honey
Even if you say the things that make me want to lose you
We went on drinking, celebrating something
I looked at you and said that I'm forever yours
You looked at me and said, oh, the idea of being in love
The idea, the idea of being forever yours
You won't be leaving my arms ever, I promise you that
Even if you want me to let go, honey
Even if you want me to let go
You won't be leaving my arms ever, I promise you that
Even if you want me to let go, honey
Even if you say the things that make me want to lose you
Screaming from the inside of me, a lonely and pleading phantasm
We only get what we see, gazing so desperately
Between the things that we fear, gazing so desperately
Elaborate delusions, we're watching segregating illusions
Between the things that we see, and the things that we fear
No, no, it won't make them disappear
You won't be leaving my arms ever, I promise you that
Even if you want me to let go, honey
Even if you want me to let go
You won't be leaving my arms ever, I promise you that
Even if you want me to let go, honey
Even if you say the things that make me want to lose you
Even if you want me to let go, honey
Even if you want me to let go, honey
Even if you want me to let go, honey
Even if you want me to let go, honey

He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
why the fuck are you on here if u hate him, go be a douche bag somewhere else you man-whore
