Lyrics
She collected raindrops
She gathered moments of purity and simplicity, symbolized by raindrops.
She collected mind blocks
She accumulated mental obstacles or challenges.
She tried to build her way up to the top
She attempted to progress in life, aspiring to reach the summit.
With the same old six guitar strings
Using the same six guitar strings, possibly representing consistency or limitations.
Every rusted note brings
Each worn-out musical note summoned inner struggles disguised as demons.
Demons who disguise themselves as thoughts
Negative thoughts that pose as challenges, hindering her progress.
She enjoyed the fall time
She found joy in the autumn season.
And she admired mudslides
She admired the way mudslides could conceal the past.
Their ability to cover up the past
Mudslides symbolize the ability to hide or forget about previous experiences.
But she got afraid of sunshine
Fear of exposure to positivity, particularly sunlight.
Afraid her lover would find a reason to run off and not look back
Fear that her partner might find a reason to leave without turning back.
And that's why they called her the lady of luck
She gained the nickname "Lady of Luck."
Spent her whole life searching for her true love
Her life was dedicated to finding true love.
She'd settle by the river about half past ten
She would settle by the river, anticipating her man's arrival around 10:30.
Waiting on her man who would like to play pretend
Waiting for a partner who enjoys pretending or playing make-believe.
She grew into sadness
She succumbed to sorrow and melancholy.
She acquired madness
She acquired a state of insanity or irrationality.
She drowned herself alone in April winds
She immersed herself in loneliness during the windy month of April.
And there she fell into sunshine
She encountered positivity and warmth.
And the butterflies, well, they flew by
Butterflies, symbols of transformation, passed by her.
And she left the world alone, how it was made
She departed the world as she found it.
And that's why they called her the lady of luck
Her nickname, "Lady of Luck," reflects her life's narrative.
Spent her whole life searching for her true love
Continued pursuit of genuine love throughout her existence.
She'd settle by the river about half past ten
Settling by the river, expecting her man at half-past ten.
Waiting on her man who would like to play pretend
Awaiting a partner who enjoys playing pretend.
Yes, that's why they called her the lady of luck
Reiteration of her title, emphasizing her life's journey.
Spent her whole life with a passion for love
Devoting her life with a strong passion for love.
Just to find out it was fear in her way
Realizing that fear obstructed her path to love.
She promised to herself that she would find it someday
She made a commitment to find true love someday.
She would find it someday
A repeated affirmation that she would discover love eventually.
Ooh oooh
A vocal expression, possibly conveying emotion or reflection.
