I think this is one of the most comlpex songs on the cd. And I can't believe more people can't get into his music. Anyway, I think this song is about taking whatever comes your way. In each verse, a short story is described about a future that is much different than the one expected. It's all done sort of optamistically, like, "oh well, it's not what I expected, but it'll do." Until the last line when he says, "here's to the future that was fine." Like, "why couldn't things just go the way they were planned? It would make things alot simpler."
I love how the 1st verse depicts the state of the world today. If Jesus came back tomorrow, yeah we would all want to be saved, but no one would really want to quit what they were doing. It's very much an ignorant paradox.
