Very nice juxtaposition of images with the lyrics. I've long noticed that most of our ballads and love songs are never quite true when sung as if they were about human relationships, but are truest when thought of as referring metaphorically or allegorically to the soul's need for relationship with her maker.
That said, I've always found that song "Thousand Miles" pretty annoying I also thought, until I clicked on the arrow, that it might have been The Proclaimers' "(I Would Walk) A Thousand Miles," which is so much better than this song in my never humble opinion.
