I always think this is my favorite Yes song. Then, when I listen to Heart of the Sunrise, I'm totally positive that THAT'S my favorite Yes song...but then, when I listen to And You and I, well, you get where I'm going with this!
As far as the meaning goes, I think Yes sent us all a message in the lyrics of Heart of the Sunrise...
"Long last treatment of the telling that relates to all the words sung
Dreamer easy in the chair that really fits you"
Meaning...you are the one that brings your own meaning into these magnificent lyrics by interacting with them and making them yours. So the war ideas are there, and so is the Las Vegas metaphor that Fedder described.
Whatever it means to YOU when YOU listen to it is the true meaning of the song...
"Straight light moving and removing sharpness of the color sunshine
Straight light searching all the meanings of the song"
Shining a "straight light" on the lyrics and trying to make them mean only one thing removes their beauty..
