Like LoserNo1, it took me years to figure out who did this song. It sounds much like the Moody Blues at one point, and then you'd swear the early Tijuana Brass were there in the studio.
Full of unresolved tension, it's truly a mini masterpiece. It can be about whatever emotional turbulence you wish to bring to the minor key koans. I read somewhere that Bryan M. said there were other lyrics that got cut from the album mix. Master tapes reported lost. Maclean seemed obsessed with getting it right, as revealed by the posthumous release "ifyoubelievein" where there are no less than three other versions of this song.
The chemistry was lost, never to be regained. Love.
