This song seems pretty straight-forward in its lyrics,
But this is what I got out of it.
The song is about a special someone to the person singing this song.
He will try anything to find and be with the one he loves.
The eastern winds, vessel, water, and whale are symbolism for obstacles he is willing to overcome to be able to find his love. He will try to get past these, even if it leads to his death.
Sounds like true dedication to me. Wonderful, yet simple, song.
