The lyrics are poetic, and open for interpetation, For me, the song is about redemption, only the most deserving received "Longer Boats" to cross the "River" to paradise at the time of death. Who's deserving? surely "The Parson", but how about "Mary" who dropped her pants,too many times..."Longer Boats are coming to win us, hold on to the shore, they'll be taking the key from the door" ..During the darkest times in our lives, we may not want hold on life , but we can turn our lives around, make amends if we have to. "Take the key from the door"..."Longer Boats are coming to win us" .....Firewalker

As B. Scharf said, it's a song about flying saucers and meeting aliens.

I don't know what Cat Stevens was singing about when he wrote this, and as he says himself, maybe he didn't quite know either...nothing wrong with that, so it goes with art.But I would like to state that, as my homeland of North Carolina stands on the brink of hydraulic fracturing, which has the potential to change the life we live and love here forever, I find myself thinking of this song from time to time...Travis Cohn, Durham and Chatham Counties, August 29, 2014 (public comments on proposed regulations end tomorrow)

From an interview with Cat Stevens: CAT: "One thing, Americans try to make too much of my songs. They’re just songs. I don’t know why I write them. But they try and find all kinds of hidden meanings in my songs. Longer Boats is actually about flying saucers. One night I was lying back in bed and I saw this flying saucer shoot across the sky and stop over me. And it sucked me up into it. When it put me down, I shot up in bed. I knew it wasn’t a dream, It didn’t feel like a dream, It was real, I know it was real."

Loved his music back in my teens and still really enjoy it. Some great music was enjoyed by all back then and is still with us. Thank you and the many others who keep it alive here with all your creativity, and time that goes into keeping this and all genres of music available here on You Tube, I truly enjoy this media, never know what gems you might come across.

According to Cat Stevens himself, this song is about "spaceships." This is how he introduced the song in a live performance from the Troubadour.

I know but it really helped me out. Weird thing is and I'm not trying to get heavy here. I bought the album years after it was released and I was cleaning up with my sister all day and we played this song over and over, I didn't know the meaning of it, but that night our dad got killed so when I read what it meant here the other day, it really touched my heart, like we gave him a send off without knowing by playing this song so much that day.Thankfully there was no acid that day. haha
