In a lighter view of the meaning in this song, I think it's about changing yourself - moving on. When the lyrics say "goodbye my friend it's hard to die" the narrator is saying they need to move on and grow older and wiser and leave their past self behind even though it's difficult. This song is about new beginnings and hopes and dreams. It's a very beautiful song.

There are many I could relate " seasons in the sun" with/to.....
but everytime I hear it, always, it brings me back to that bath time with the little one.
As for friendships, not my speciality ....
but that don't mean people don't care or matter to me and others won't fade in comparison if and when one does.
Nice write Nam, maybe calming even, too much though .....
THE STORM is ???
