One interesting thing about this song: when I first heard it, I thought the words were "You see the sky, the sky's in love with you..." which really makes sense, after a fashion. The person being sung to is so desirable that all of nature worships her, or something like that. (I think I've read some 17th century poetry that essentially says the same thing.) Anyway, I still like my version better, so there! Will Martin
