I thought I could not be more in love with the song's poetic essence, but the musical sweetness makes me giddy enough to question that. The central image deals with a concrete "fact" (that being the powerful, mammoth 'sun') projecting an interaction (such as the moon) to an observer on the ground.
Amid this ethereality, the observer focuses on the state of waiting, where patience and artistry is vital for survival.
The pivotal moment for the poem is brought by the realization that the sun already projects into the observer's life. Thus the next lines: "Never you mind whether evening should find us together, / Distance can't take what is hidden here safe in my chest."
