I don't know if this song is meant to be taken literally. It's not about a boy going on adventures. It's about a person who lacks it and is seeking it in others.

It's like a prose poem I wrote.

"A boy will never seek adventure in safe harbors. A man will call them home after a life of rough and stormy seas."

I perceive it as a young man who finds settling down with someone to be boring and mundane but also because they may fear the commitment. Being lost in so many places but seeking love in so many faces...
