This song to me is the most descriptive song about living in N Ireland during those years. I don't think its really a love song. Its about the weariness of living in the constant low level hostility and violence and the island is the release from that pressure and repressive atmospher. It describes peoples yearning for peace for normality and the reality that, at that time, normality and peace was a totally unattainable dream.
