I remember hearing this song as a child. Brings back nostalgia and memories of Lake Michigan (grew up in Chicago). Makes me feel like I'm literally sailing........HOWEVER, has anyone thought (as I did for the first time tonight) that this song could be a song about how a drug takes you away to that special place? "But it's not far back to sanity," the song says...NEVER did I ever think this song had references to escapism via drugs, but I think such a conclusion could be a viable interpretation. What does anyone else think?
@sawyourface Haha, well the word "canvas" is related to the word "cannabis", since canvas was made from hemp. "Oh, the cannabis can do miracles / Just you wait and see. / T-H-C...."

@sawyourface That's one way to view it, but to me this song was special growing up since I was kind of a loner and very much use to the solitude of finding my own peace in myself. For me this song is about enjoying your own imagination the way you use to as a child. Using drugs doesn't really do that imho.
