Shortening a Song, simplifying a Lyric, is almost always a good idea.
Changing from an anonymous 'lecturer' telling 'the collective you' about the philosophical idea, to a 'first-person I' had an interesting effect.
That makes it less 'philosophical' and more 'Singer Character' relating first-hand experience, a 'storied conversation' between him and his Love-Interest Character. We get to eavesdrop on it, or even 'assume the persona' of the Singer-Character and 'be in' the Song/Story ourselves. Gary clued me in on that back at SW101... Listen to him, Rob.
