I am ashamed to say I have never heard this song, which I'll have to remedy soon. Love the band and love the debut album...my favorite album of all time. I spend so much time discussing "manhood" with my young son and as I watched him fall asleep tonight I smiled as I wondered what he will be like when he's an adult; married; with children; and relecting on his childhood. He is the joy of my life (his sister, too, although she's somewhat distant due to her age) and I pray every day that he will make someone a thoughtful and caring husband and father. We give them wings, but they must fly alone.
