I think "The Ocean" is somewhat of a response to this song. Here he seems unsatisfied with life and resorts to dreams, but then realizes that those dreams aren't real. In Ocean, it seems as if Will is saying that life is good as is.
"Every now and then
I sit and I think about this life
And I say "yeah, how could anyone want more?"
I got the notion put your body in motion
Come on now we'll float away on the ocean
There's a lot of candy in this store."
