Mercury Summer Lyrics

This song really makes me think of my girlfriend, the lyrics sound to me like they're in a dubious relationship, but he is very confidant about it:

I hope you make it through I hope the sea is just as blue as our dream We've got a long way to climb Until we see what we've left behind ... I know this, is going to be alright...

And the chorus is all about him looking forward to the next time they get to be together.

The second and third verses seem to be about their fights, how "[they] are the soldiers of our own events" and "So how can you fall asleep, So close to the fire that is keeping us warm?" seems to say that she sometimes strays to close to the hot topics that cause the fights and can ruin the core of their relationship.

And that's about the gist of it, so far as I see right now. This is actually a very good song, I love it, even though I don't like Fightstar, it really surprised me!
