My Name is Ann,
Just adding my welcome. I'm glad you felt comfortable enough to jump in. I happen to feel the same way as you do about his lyrics. I hear them as metaphors, personal, but not literal. I think that's one of the reasons for its wide and long-lasting appeal. We each make them our own.
A note about jumping in : You did see the warning about the riptide that can sometimes appear at this site, didn't you ? There have been a few reports of near-drownings.
