There's more, but maybe I'm so far off that I need to stop there!
I may be way off here, and trust me, it won't be the first time. Yet I always think of this song as someone telling an alcholic that there's a lot more living to do.
What do you think?

I've often thought about it myself, and I'm inclined to think that that may be exactly what is being said--that there's a lot more living to be done, and it can't be done if one is literally dead drunk.
