First of all, I can't believe there aren't more posts. I thought this would be one of the most popular Aqualung songs. I actually just saw it on a commercial.

This song is about how we seem to be all alone in our own lives, and we can't get anywhere in life unless we have someone with us, for someone or something whom we can believe in.

He is talking to a girl who lives a lonely, empty life, and she tries to fill her life just by talking to no one and collecting material objects. He also describes himself, who has nothing to him, and if he gets rid of his possessions he has nothing. That's why he needs something to believe in; because without something to look forward to, he is alone.
