I cry every time I play this song. I love how Ben Folds seems to allude to how love defies time where " in a white sea of eyes I see one pair that I recognise" because their souls are linked together accross time and the eyes are the windows of the soul.
The part about the elderly couple is so perfect. There are accounts of this actually happening--a medical reality which is testimony to how love can join people together in a life bond of sorts.
I played this at my wedding because it so beautifully illustrated what love is.
