Discover the story of the song > Feeling of Being – Lucy Schwartz

The lyrics are about the protagonist wanting to experience a certain feeling or sensation, which they describe as the "feeling of being". They believe that if they can sink or cry, they will understand themselves and their partner better. The protagonist spends time sailing down a river, hoping to catch this feeling, but even though they pretend to catch it, they never actually feel it. They wonder if they will ever truly understand each other and find what they are looking for, but realize that they are both going down the same path and if they can just let go and find the hidden silver, they might be able to find that feeling.
