my brain cant stop....have tons of ideas coming out which give me many sleepless nights

many nice songs...should match our photos...many many ideas...

always moved by poem-like songs, once listen to it, play attention to the lyrics, picture in mind...

Sting wrote this after he bought a house near a barley field. The sunsets and the colors of the field were an inspiration for the lyrics, along with his love at the time. (thanks, Charlotte - coventry, England)

The major theme in this is commitment. It is about a man who has broken promises before, but is determined make this relationship last.

The story is chronological. It is about courtship, marriage, and eventual death. The two people in the song meet, court, fall in love (at this point, he reveals that he has never really made such a strong promise/commitment to someone) but feels he is ready to now. "See the children run," their offspring and the "jealous sky" refer to the Heavens. Even Heaven is jealous of their love/relationship. The esteemed sun is jealous. Eventually, he dies and tells his love that they will always remember their love specifically, when she thinks of him, he wants to be personified as such... walking in fields of gold (barley). (thanks, Hatch - Cincinnati, Ohio)

Sting started writing this on the guitar. He thinks his simple songs are often his best, and uses this as an example.

Sting's wife, Trudie Styler, considers this one of her favorites.

The album title is a play on Sting's real name, Gordon Sumner, as well as a reference to The Canterbury Tales.
