i've been going down
down into the river baby
listen to the sound
it's something only god knows
you figure it out, i can't stay
water's in the clouds
is my life about A change?
who knows, who cares
so we took a van down to colorado
where we ran into the dead
i took you by the hand
know that even with your doubts, it's ok
take into account that it's not about A change
who knows, who cares
you could let it down
jump into the river baby
easy as it sounds
it's never quite as easily done
the current has us now, it's ok
take into account that it's all about TO change
who knows, who cares
no one's been there
but i don't care
i know all have been there
i don't care
i know
To me this song is about letting your walls down.
When someone new comes into your life they can always make a huge impact.
You get to know more about the person and your life begins to change because they are not only opening up to you, but you are opening up to them as well.
It's not a process, you just go along with it, such as a river's current.
You can tell yourself to let yourself open up to someone but it's hard to actually get yourself to do it..
In the beginning of the song, I think he is telling about the relationship with that person ending
"you figure it out, I can't stay" <--he can't let himself open up
But throughout the rest of the song I think it is about during their relationship and how he is trying to get the other person to open up, but in the end it is himself that really couldn't

That's just how I feel about it though.
