When this song was written, Billy Joel had been battling with his manager Frank Weber who embezzled millions from him. This led him to question whether he should continue his career or stop.
He then tries to figure out what it means to have a spiritual life. He starts to ask questions about whether there is an afterlife and what he should do with his life.
He also tries to figure out what it means to be happy. He thinks about all the things he has done in his life and all the people that he has loved. He believes that if he does it right, then he will be happy.
