Can't believe that no one has commented on this song yet. This is one of the best songs on a wonderful album; just beautiful. I love the gently skipping 6/8 time signature, and the line "And a butterfly in the wind is drifting like I do" always gets me. Also, "a storm without the thunder" sums up the emotional turmoil so well, and the emptiness (no thunder), in just a few words.
This is about having loved and lost, and feeling rudderless and drifting without the one you loved. Also being afraid to tell the other person how you really feel.

I really miss the Sundays.
