I heard this song for the first time this evening. I had to comment only because the song hit me so hard. To me it seems to be about the fleeting moments we have with our loved ones and about the inevitability of death. It brought me to tears with memories of my father and how, at those wonderous moments, I failed to realize that I would too soon suffer his loss. In the video the boy brings the fish back to life at the end. Is this perhaps a metaphor for how people can live on in our memories? Or perhaps how we can bring true life into this one by appreciating the fact that life, itself, is fleeting?
