You guys are on the right track. Let me say first my friends band recorded at Mat Talbots studio in Indiana, so this is third hand, but from the scource. This epic masterpiece is an endearing love song. However its a narrative of his own experience in the delivery room where he watched his son die shortly after delivery. He's wishing that his son could look back at him just to see him once, and one of you was right about the thin green line. Your all intuative people, give it a listen again and walk yourself through. (R.I.P.)
I simply cannot listen to this song without getting teary eyed. He poetically touches the gut wrenching love that you feel once you have a child, but is able to find the beauty in the unimaginable loss of a baby. Once I heard this song it became my favorite Hum song, and after finding out the story behind the song it still is. I just can't listen to it all that often anymore.

That truly puts the lyrics in perfect context - and it made me cry. Even 10 years later, Hum continues to find new ways to wow me.
