whenever I hear the song on the radio it almost always sends a chill down my spine.

Agreed. It puts you right in the middle of the scene.
It's one of the best pieces of song writing - ever.
"Does anyone know where the love of God goes/when the waves turn the minutes to hours?"
I've had my share of those times when bluewater sailing, and that song always runs through my head.
I agree. I'd also say that gazing out across a gray, rain-swept Lake Superior on a cold autumn day conjures up particularly forlorn, haunting emotions.
Gord sure can tell a story.
Just reading this sent a chill down my spine..........just as the song always does.
