This song may be talking about a couple committing suicide, like in "The Lovecats." This talks about two people (possibly more) who yearn to "sleep," a term which, in this case, means die. Then the song lyrics seem to contradict this message and describe how spiritual and pleasant it will be, and then the song seems to not be talking about death at all. I believe this could mean that two people desperately want to be together forever, so they kill themselves so they may be together in the afterlife for eternity. Unlike "The Lovecats," where suicide seemingly is condemned as being 'dumb,' this song seems strangely tranquil and hopeful. This song could be completely ironic, which is how I choose to interpret it, and might be making fun of the extremes people will go to for love. This is only my interpretation, though, so you might interpret it otherwise.
