| I saw Train last year when they toured military bases. Gabby was right... according to Pat Monahan himself the song is about military folks going off to war and the people that they leave behind. Train has become my favorite band. I cannot wait for their next album, whenever they may come. | |

| I absolutely love this song. It reminds me of one of my really good friends I met during school a few years ago. She has changed my life for the better in so many ways, and I could never thank her enough. Even though we don't see each other often anymore, when I listen to this song, I remember how much she taught me and how much life is worth living. This song is amazing; it means the world to me. | |

| When I heard this song I immediatley thought that it sounded like a guy singing to his a gf or his wife who had died, and how his faith helped him to know she was still with him. | |

| I agree with jiodek, i believe this song is about God. The only part that doesn't go along with that is the part when it says "Every word I didn't say.....I'll wrap them all up in a kiss". The most powerful part in the sing that enforces the God thing is, "When I feel that there is no one that will know me, you're there to show me..." I personally love this song! | |

| I think this song is about God or a guardian angel. There's references to Heaven and guidance. I don't really know how to explain it any further. It just seems to fit that way for me. | |

| I think jag3892 is pretty much on the money. if its not his mother its another loved one who has passed on. I know I always think of my mom, granted, like jag said about the line you don't cross, the last time I saw her she was in a hospital bed and pretty much just a shell, so I never got to really say goodbye, but I "wrapped it all up in a kiss" and basically kinda hope there is an afterlife so I can pick her up when I sail away(die). Also to boot, I never heard, or at least paid any attention to this song before, but it just seemed it had an extremely long airplay and was always on when I was down or just missing her. | |
