Catcher In The Light... Is there any special meaning?

[NintendoHTF1242]

There's a section in the book Catcher In The Rye where a character is on a carasolue trying to reach a gold ring. I connect the lyrics to that part

'If you only look
You will never get it
If you only look
It will never be yours'

The character sees the gold ring and tries to get it. Ayu says that if you don't try, you cannot grab that golden ring.

That's my interpretation. Thank goodness I read that in my AP English class lol
