Oops....I´m the first to write a comment here. And the only thing I can say is: I don´t understand the meaning of this song, not at all. I think Johnny´s lyrics are not only symbolic but cryptic here. Nevertheless if someone has any deeper insight I´m interested to read it.

I wouldn´t post here at all, if I didn´t like the music so much. I love the music, I even love the monotony of the music! First the slow part with the cool trumpets and the "raining" background, then the faster part with fantastic guitar rhythm and this simple, heart-moving melody. Maybe my favourite together with "The Wrote and the Writ". Johnny is a great and very gifted musician.
