A Theory on Into the West - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

After listening to the song many times, Into the West to me seems almost like a love song. My opinion is that it's like Celeborn singing to Galadriel. The line "and dream of the ones who came before" makes me think of all the other Elves who have left for Valinor. Also the line "you and I will meet again" reminds me of how has Galadriel to leave Celeborn because she is a ring-bearer, but one day he will join her. What do you think?[ 3:31 PM December 31, 2003: Message edited by: Orominuialwen ]
