This is a great song. It's incredibly symbolic. The lyricist uses metaphors to convey his thoughts. None of caP'n Jazz's lyrics are very straightforward. The most straightforward song I can think of off the top of my head is "Basil's Kite." Anyways, if you think about the lyrics and listen to the song, a meaning starts to form. These lyrics are very interpretive. I'm sure they can mean anything to anyone, but we'll never know what Mike(or Tim or whoever) was thinking when they wrote the lyrics. Personally, I think this song is about being so in love with someone, but the relationship begins to go wrong. He is just lost in his thoughts. Lots of symbolism that I don't care to explain etc...
Um, I'm kinda late to reply here but your interpretation of the song is interesting to me! The acoustic version of this song was the first thing I had ever heard from Cap'n Jazz while living what you described, the song resonated with me immediately. Aside from finding so much meaning in the lyrics, I never really understood the reaction caused by that initial exposure. Until now! I would've never guessed the song could be about EXACTLY what I was going through at the time...
