A Fish on Land Lyrics

To me this song depicts the fateful encounter with her lover/husband. It also describes her isolation and doubts as she wonders if anyone else experiences powerful premonitions like she has had with regards to the man she's met (the fish on land). It's as if she was warned of the apparition of her lover through her dream and seeks to understand by asking if this happens to everyone, should she believe it? Wonderful song.
