a beautiful song! yes. it tells of a man who has experienced a lot. Highs and lows. Loss and regret. Sensual love. Been cold and alone. He is obviously a very religious man. But he still hasn't found what he's looking for. He just keeps looking.
E. A. Poe wrote a poem titled "Eldorado" that spoke of a similar character. A brave knight who searched his whole life looking for the lost city of gold. He never found it. But ran across a ghost/spirit who told him to keep looking, if that was what he was looking for.
Some searches are just the search itself. the search is what you are looking for.
