Lyric discussion by samova 

The song has amazing insight to the feeling you get when one of your rare acquaintances you'd like to know better dies.

Gord sums up perfectly what he's trying to say, while leaving loose ends to allow listeners to make their own personal opinions to it. He's probably one of the best writers of all time. I think it's time he starts getting acknowledged more in the world. Not just Canada.
