this is one of my all time favorite songs. I definitely agree with the island with healing waters..but i think he uses it somewhat as a metaphor for his wife. I think it's about him wanting her to embrace him and love him and heal him and take all of his pain away. As for the vulnerable line...if you have ever been in love with someone, and are telling them at first, you are putting yourself out there, and are completely vulnerable. That person could make or break you. In this song he is reaching out for his wife, and is completely vulnerable and he just wants her to accept him.
