The explanation, "he wouldn't know what to do if he caught one" makes sense, but I still don't like it. I can't get used to the title, though, it just doesn't seem like the heart of the song to me. It would stand to reason that the ground could represent reality, as they would have their backs to reality in this song, later to be faced as "cold" reality and "warm" reality in the other songs, respectively. For some reason, I picture this song as a couple with their backs to the ground, staring up at the stars. There is also the matter of lying down on the ground, which appears in this song, Set the Fire to the Third Bar, and Warmer Climate.

It's not shut your eyes, but it is some form of blindness. The theme of the album shows up in the line, "Here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see".

For however good it feels in the moment, it's a set-up for disaster. Track 4 leads to track 5 and it is eventually revealed that this is a naive state of mind. This song seems to be the beautiful side of ignoring reality through love, whereas the next song, Shut Your Eyes, seems to be about the dangerous side.

General CommentIdealized love, that's what I hear.
