More Than This lyrics

Its about falling in love although you know it will end. Its about learning to be carefree despite this fact and realising like the tide there is no way of msking it turn in another direction. He asks what can be more important than this? This is to love with vigour and lightheartedness despite ourselves.

To me this song is about facing profound questions with no answers and the forlorn that accompanies the attempt to know. Loss, with the question "why"; hurt with no sense of comfort ahead. Lost with little hope. Yet a flicker of light teases the senses and engages the mind and spirit to keep moving forward. The human experience of suffering and eventual recovery.

This song is a study in contrast. Its being as free as the wind, and yet like the sea on the tide having no way of turning. Its about having no care in the world when it involves the thing that means the most. Its about not knowing the future, yet knowing the outcome will inevitably be same no matter what. Its about falling in love.

I believe he's saying that we start out our lives innocent and having fun but through learning we realize that life can go in many directions, like the leaves and dreams. We as humans are free as the wind as hopefully we learn along the way, although what we come to understand is that some things in life are changeable but some things like the sea on the tide are not. More than this we as humans know nothing about what's beyond our life but through faith ferry may be saying there is the hope ("more than this tell me one thing"). What though is the one thing he wants to be told?
