No Such Thing as Love
Navigating the Winds of Heartbreak: A Tale of Lost Love
Lyrics
She was young when she left home
She left her home at a young age.
She was such a pretty thing
She was attractive or charming.
She fell in love with some kind of sailor
She fell in love with a sailor.
She heard the six bells ring
She heard the ship's bells ring, possibly indicating a departure.
She's been walking a beaten track
She's been following a well-worn path.
Riding with some friends of mine
She's been traveling with some friends.
Out where the others play and sing
She's in a place where others are enjoying music and activities.
Having a really good time
She's having a good time.
I don't want her to feel that fire no more
The narrator doesn't want her to experience intense passion again.
I don't want my head all covered in gold
The narrator doesn't want to be excessively adorned or obsessed with material wealth.
I don't want her to feel that fire no more
Reiteration of not wanting her to feel intense passion.
Getting blown away
She's facing challenges or being overwhelmed.
There's no such thing as love
The narrator believes love doesn't exist.
Anymore anymore
Emphasizes the absence of love.
There's no such thing as love
Reiteration of the absence of love.
Anymore
Further emphasis on the absence of love.
She was older when she came back
She returned home when she was older.
She was still a pretty thing
Despite age, she retained her attractiveness.
She left for that some kind of sailor
She left her marriage for a sailor.
Threw away her wedding ring
She discarded her wedding ring.
She's been looking for home sweet home
She's searching for a place to call home.
Some money to be heaven sent
She seeks financial stability as a blessing.
She never heard of that some kind of sailor
She is unaware of the fate of the sailor she loved.
Down to the bottom he went
The sailor faced a tragic end.
Darling
Term of endearment addressed to the woman.
Getting blown away
Reiteration of facing challenges or being overwhelmed.
There's no such thing as love
Reiteration of the belief that love doesn't exist.
Anymore anymore
Emphasizes the absence of love, reiterating the message.
