This song is about a man who's just out living his life, when he sees his former girlfriend, who was his first love. The story is about how the two get to talking, and how he remembers being so much in love with her and thinking that their breakup would kill him. The moral, of course, being about how young love is more like a rite of passage that can lead to better things.

This is a more emotional take on two people who were once in love but now can't seem to reach each other. It's the male in the relationship lamenting about the love lost, and he wants that love back, but it could work from any gender perspective to be sure. I just happen to be a guy, so that's my perspective for writing.

We probably all get to thinking from time to time about things that we cannot change, and then we start thinking about how we'd change them anyway. If only the "this" was the "that," we could definitely change things. This song is just a way to touch on that a little bit, speaking about how we can't really change fixed things in this life.

A song told from the perspective of both a man and a woman. A man describing the woman, and the woman's request to be sang to while falling asleep. Pretty simplistic concept but enough room to have fun trying to expand on the imagery within a short window.

I got to thinking about seeing Halley's Comet when I was just a kid, and then wondering if I would live long enough to see it come back 'round again. This is just a simple folk song about a comet and how a person wonders about their relationship in the universe relative to the comet's.
