ong Structure and Lyrics

The song is a slow ballad. It has a drum roll introduction, and then a guitar solo.

Its subject is a couple who are in a romantic situation, and the man expresses his desire to make the impossible happen, so they can be closer.

The song references the miracle of walking on water.

The solo comes directly from the song "Mihalis" on Gilmour's first solo album.
