Even if we don't think about life necessarily well We do our best To bring conclussions YA' got to think of the worst first Turn your head, think of the best Always two different ways, never the least I am to old for you But you are not to young for me Looking up and looking down See the form, see the place Love has destany, even though you tie it up, still it has to have a place to go

This page thinks through life by holding worst and best together, then turns toward desire and the claim that love still has its own destination.

The age-gap line is provocative, but the larger movement is toward form and placement. Correcting the final verb clarifies the ending: even when love is tied up or obstructed, it still has to have a place to go.
