Cette chanson évoque le voyage entre la vie et l’au-delà, en utilisant la métaphore du passeur. Elle nous invite à transmettre nos souvenirs vers une île lointaine, symbole de paix et de lumière, tout en suivant le chemin du soleil. Les paroles mettent en lumière la lutte humaine face aux éléments, où la mer représente à la fois les défis et les opportunités de renouvellement. Le contexte de la chanson laisse entrevoir un mélange de nostalgie et de quête spirituelle. Le narrateur semble naviguer à travers des émotions profondes, cherchant à se souvenir et à se libérer de poids du passé, tout en acceptant la fragilité de la condition humaine.
