This song does explain the nature of love, it’s mysterious journey through our conscious lives, and it’s revealing trek through the corners of the subconscious aspect of our lives.
There’s a light
A certain kind of light
That never shone on me
This lyric speaks of that subconscious aspect. Love awakens the senses, and it allows us to sense things previously unknown, and otherwise undetected.
In my brain
I see your face again
I know my frame of mind
This lyric speaks of the conscious aspect of love, the part that keeps the beloved close even when apart.
Calling to mind love keeps us going and fills us with joy.
The BeeGees made this song famous but the lyrics are timeless and classic, as is the melody which has some enduringly painful sounds. I cried when I listened.
Ray does a fine job of pulling the emotions out of himself and thrusting them into the song, although he does so very cautiously, almost holding back, but it was magnificent.
