Meaning
In a 2007 interview with Incubus, Brandon Boyd expressed his thoughts on the song:[1]
It's almost a little bit of a cliché. It is talking about the idea of love and finding love and having it be pure and not tainted by our misperceptions, misconceptions, expectations and transcending the sort of more worldly aspects of the love experience.
