i suppose this song relates to fleas daughter clara (maybe to his other children as well- if there are any others...)
if you read just a little bit of "fleamail" (what you should do) you will know that his children are of very very big importance for him. i remember that he once wrote: "you owe them everything they owe you nothing" (good quote by the way).
and to pay off this "debts" he "takes it all and then finds a way to share" it.
he´s sharing his experiences with her ("tell you of the sights These eyes have seen"). he´s not just teling her, he tries to "put them into motion" to show her what it meant and what it really was like. this way he takes her along with him (like he often takes her on tour with him) to show her "everything", which is "for free".
moreover the description of how to live a life in the first verse matches fleas attitude of not to give a shit about what other want you to be or think of you (what you also should do g). a thing that he spoke of beeing important to teach a daughter/son.
i think this song could also be understood as description of a good friendship or maybe even a love relationship, because the chorus and the last verse speak of a strong love for someone. of course the aspects of giving and/or showing the world to someone do not really match this interpretation...
anyway for me this is also a very nice song to think of a girl (or boy respectivly) that you would die for, wander with and whatever...
