The lyrics are about a man who wonders if he would still be strong and reliable if he faced difficult times. It talks about how we live our lives not knowing what will happen and just hoping for love and happiness. It mentions historical figures like Henry Plantagenet and Thomas More who were in tough situations. It also talks about how some people believe in different things like Jehovah or Allah. The lyrics ask if the man would still be able to handle everything if he found out there was no relief from his struggles. It ends by saying that sometimes things are over before we know it, and the man is lost.
