The repeated "and miss, and miss"es that close the song are one of the most powerful and moving moments by any artist. There's so much longing and pain in the vocal, while the instrumentation conveys the urgency of it perfectly, and it's only made more devastating by the sadness and acceptance in the following lines.

My interpretation of the song has always been very wrapped up in some personal stuff (which is true for Sawdust and Diamonds and Only Skin as well), so its nice to read a different interpretation, and I don't recall reading those quotes before. Thanks for a great post, stillorbiting.
