This is so much more than a simple love song. It is an encouragement to anyone who has given into despair and negative thinking. There is no more lonely place than the human mind. Just believing in our own thoughts only leads us deeper into the morass of loneliness. By faith, not by reason, we have a way out and onto a path of healing. We can recover our lost childhood innocence and again experience joy and a sense of wonder - outside our minds.

The Crossroads can be the pathways to heaven or hell, but it also symbolizes the choices we face everyday, the decisions we alone can make about what direction to take in life. It speaks to existential aloneness we humans experience. We need help. We need friends and sometimes there just isn't anyone. We feel like we're sinking into darkness so we cry out. That's what makes this a timeless blues classic.
