I feel like this song was written to me, by myself in the future. The first verse especially is "Give me a word, give me a sign. Show me where to look, Tell me, What will I find?"

I feel this way because of something profound that happened to me. I have always been interested in astronomy, and in particular, the moon and the planets. I always look at them. This is what "show(ed) me where to look. I did see a sign, a very strong sign. But it wasn't a word. It was numbers. Prime numbers. Prime numbers starting at 2 and continuing in succession to 19 or so. But they weren't bright and flashing, they were subtle. If I hadn't of been so interested in looking at the moon and planets, I would have never seen them.

So this is what I found, if I could only know what it means. All that I can take from it, and in light with the rest of this beautiful song, is that there is more to life than meets the eye. Heaven, perhaps. Afterlife, perhaps. Alternate dimensions and universes, perhaps. Extraterrestrial life, perhaps. All that one can do is live life and enjoy the journey. And, keep an eye out for interesting, if subtle, signs. Ha ha.
