I feel like there is a two sided story going on here. He wrote this in 1970 which could correlate with the world at the time or his life. If you know what he was going through in his life during this time, you'd know he just lost his girl. 1st verse - he is questioning god whether to live or die. 2nd - He has been waiting for her, is she coming back. 3rd - wind blowing/upper deck = can't move up/on, cross = faith she'll come back, he still remembers her. 4th - he senses the end. 5th - its a stretch so leave it to your imaginations fellas. 6th - he wants to be like the other guys and stay strong 7th - he overturns the table not cable so he changes around his life and emotionally disconnects from the woman.
