Lyric discussion by EmmaTwosouls 

Over analysis on this one. It was written for the film 'Highlander', Connor Macleod id immortal, Heather his woman isn't, he has to watch her grow old and die, and the song reflects the melancholy of his position. Clever beautiful song, but wholly commercial.

Surely it was written for the movie, but the sharpest lyrics always carry the possibility to be intepreted in many ways that can bring to deeper meanings.
