This song is about a man who has so many choices in his life. He has come to a point where he can go in any directon (so all of a sudden I'm facing a
raging river that passed me by
do I turn around, do I turn my eye
to the sun in the apex of the high noon
I'm on a flatbed yellow pick up
underneath a half moon )
The second stanza is this man telling someone that if there going to take the risk of this path they should go with them now.
The chorus then comes (but before I know it
I'm going down this itty bitty river in
a boat a little bigger
than a bath tub
my bones begin to shiver
'cause I'm aching to deliver
this water that I must give her
can I get some )
this means that the man has nothing to start with (boat no bigger than a bath tub) his bones begin to shiver cause hes waiting to deliver this water that I must give her) this is talking about how the man is so anxious with his choice to go find (this girl) girlfriend maybe, and he wants his choice to work out right in the end.
Then the stanza with (down by the railway station
people moving a new direction
take a ticket from who you can
drive that train) this tops off the meaning of endless roads of possibilities.
tell me what you think
