![]() This song strikes me as the situation of two people that got themselves into something they should have never touched. (As the train approaches Gare du Nord, I'm sure your kiss remains employed)Īnd questions how real the situation is, either if he is really putting himself through this, or if his wife really loves him.Īnyway, thats my long guess at whats going on here, sorry for taking up so much room.Īnyway, thats my long guess at whats going on here, sorry for taking up so much room. (I'll wake up tomorrow and I'll start, tonight it feels so hard)Īnd as he keeps travelling, Jim keeps in mind how his wife loves him The tour has to carry on, and though he misses his wife, he has to keep going. (Are you happy where you're standing still)Īnd concludes that he would be lying to himself if he said he could, even though he could stay at home He questions whether he could live without playing music, and touring as a result ![]() (I'm done, theres nothing left to show, I try but can't let go) He's drained after a show and he can't stop thinking about back home I think the song then jumps to Jim on tour, and he's missing his wife. (I feel that when I'm old, I'll look at you and know, the world was beautiful) He then tells her that he'll stay with her til they're old together (Get down on your knees, whisper what I need, something pretty) Jim asks for his wife to give him something to keep in mind when he's away, to remind him of her. ![]() (When you go I'll let you be, but you're killing everything in me.) (Then you tell me:You say that love goes anywhere, in your darkest time its just enough to know its there) The chorus is then, I think his wife seeing him off, and telling Jim it's ok. (A thousand nights or more, I travel east and north)Īnd he wants to know he'll be let 'back in' when he comes home (I'll say it straight and plain, I know I've made mistakes, I've always been afraid.) Jim is trying to justify with himself going on tour, scared that leaving his wife will harm his relationship with her. Right, taking Jim as the person writing the song, (instead of when bands sing songs from someone elses point of view), and going from the top to finish, this is my interpretation: In your darkest time, it's just enough to know it's thereĪre you happy where you're standing still?
