lol! i like it, i think its ballad of a thin man too that sounds extremely sexual in places.
Seems to me its a song in a similar vein to "To Ramona," he's talking to a girl in both songs and appears to be advising her on how not to get lost. It comes just after "Like A Rolling Stone" on the album too, a song in which the girl's train clearly has got lost.
The first verse implies he is making a journey (perhaps life) and the last implies that the girl is following/wants to follow him.
The moon through the trees and the sun going down over the sea also imply perhaps a transition? Perhaps generally of time. He is trying to help the girl keep up with time maybe, when the girl in "Like A Rolling Stone" failed to do so.
Its also a very 'On The Road' style song and reminds me of 'Its All Over Now Baby Blue' - the ideas that everything is temporary, the importance of being able to adapt and move on and re-invent yourself.
