This song was the conclusion to Nelson's brilliant Red Headed Stranger. This songs not about being lost. It is about being found by new love. It is about a life of redemption.
"An' in the shade of an oak down by the river,
Sit an old man an' a boy,
Settin' sail, spinnin' tales an' fishin' for whales,
With a lady they both enjoy."
Don't listen to the song. Listen to the whole album!
