Wonderfull Santana-y tribute, this. I think this song is about chilling out and going with the flow, because life's not a race. The chorus doesn't seem to fit into the rest of the song, it sounds like he still loves someone who doesn't have feelings for him anymore?
@Deathwaffle I think the chorus is about the concept of "energy never being created or destroyed" . The fear of death is touched on, "can't believe that part of me will fade"... "In a future world, long ago" touches on the fact that time is merely a human construct, everything is actually quite cyclical. That same "part" that you are worrying about fading, is already catching your vibe "Part feels for your live, and lives to tell you so" and its literally trying to comfort your fear, because it is "already" reborn. The last verse kind...

The last verse kind of attempts to give hope, telling you not to worry, you will return, and you already have, and are, and will. Haha 15 years later you get a trippy response. You are spot on with the Santana influence. In fact, I played this song for my uncle when the album came out, and although he really wasn't paying attention, as I was playing the whole album on the way to an amusement park, and he was distracted anyway, when the solo came on, he said "whoah who is this Carlos Santana wanna be" lol. It was a compliment really.
