Impregnable Question

Firstly, this is a beautiful track.

I suppose I'm going to attempt to break this down as I see it presently.

If there is ever the impregnable question of why, what did or didn't pass. - "If we ever wonder why things turned out as they did."

It would help to seek comfort in destiny - "It would be handy to look at it from the perspective that everything happens for a reason."

but I really don't, - "But I don't" we don't see eye to eye - " as destiny and I don't see eye to eye."

but I need you and you're always on my mind - "And regardless of these thought, I know that I need you and you're all I think about."

Whether there is or isn't any position you care if I take or if I don't - "I don't know if you even care what position I take on the matter at this point."

I will always hold what what we shared so long - "But here's how it is- I'm going to hold on to the feeling we shared."

to be the only love, and though we don't see eye to eye I need you, and you're always on my mind - "That you are my only love, and even if we don't see things the same way, I need you, and you're all I think about."

Through time, and through many a situation We both look forward, side-by-side - "We've been through a lot together."

We have shared it all, we have both stood tall. - "And we braved some tough times and made it through."

What is mine is yours, in happiness and in strife - "Everything I have and am is yours, irrespective of how we feel."

You're my love, and I want you in my life - " You are the one I love, and I want you in my life."

That's just how I see it, I suppose. If you have any additions or thoughts, go for it.

I love this song! Quite the departure from most DP songs. A beautiful, short

Today, I listened to this with my girlfriend, to which she said "We should play this at our wedding."

If there was ever any question that she is my soulmate, that answered it!!

beautifully simple song.

bit pedantic perhaps, but I've always listened to it slightly differently, without the '?' after the 'why':

If there is ever the impregnable question of why what did or didn't pass? it would help to seek comfort in destiny but i really don't, we don't see eye to eye.

I think this gives the sense of the first verse (and best, in my opinion!) better. I tend to think of this song as from the perspective of a guy whose relationship is breaking or has broken down. he says that you can ask questions about why things broke down, and it may help to think that it was 'fate', but thinking like that can't help him get over it. it's such a simple idea, but is conveyed so perfectly in that verse.

Song about a couple who may or may not have lasted, but they had a child together. Although the relationship still proves difficult, they find happiness in what theyve built together and aren't looking back at what ifs.
