Funny how you can hear a song for 30 years and it might mean not much. or different things at different times.
This song recently found its way into my playing rotation, here's my current take, perhaps relevant to some current experinces.
Yup, he idolizes, and that means objectifies the woman, and after a bit this gets a bit tired for everybody, and he's history, the walking antique.
Point to me is, what happens when you put a woman on a pedestal; it does nobody any good. You idealize her and give her superpowers to make you miserable or elated, and nobody should hold that power over you but you.
Close relationships function best when folks want to learn to know each other, not worship each other and depend on them for taking away the dark and bringing the light.
