I think the beginning of the song speaks to his purity of intentions, no pretense, he’s very honest about the way he lives & feels, and because of it he suffers for being real, and he knows it. He acknowledges that seemingly things should be a certain way, and alas they are not, yet there is still a longing for it to be so. His love is in beautiful juxtaposition to him, but they can’t be together. And so, fore lorn he will always look for her and search for her, hoping she will one day cross his path again. Somewhere out there in the expanse is a place for them together, in happiness. Powerful song, one of my faves. I love how the guitar solo at the end starts to fade then comes back strong.
