it sounds to me like this is a song about the singer's two young children, who have a doctor's appointment or something. He's a young dad, and still in awe of and very protective of his children. In the beginning they're playing around in the woods (excited voices, mud, etc). He's asking the doctor, "will it be just like they're dreaming?" because he's afraid of his children haing discomfort. Then he's asking his wife if he should maybe let them go a little. I don't know, that's just what I think of. Especially since several of AC's other songs sound like they're about small children. I don't even know if whichever one of them wrote the song even has kids, but I always feel like with this band, it's less about the lyrics anyway... I love them because it completely takes me out of ordinary, constricting emotions and into a wild different place
