Lyrics
So you are gone Viking Girl
Expressing the departure of a person addressed as "Viking Girl."
So you are gone for good
Confirming that the departure is permanent.
Never thought you would
Expressing surprise or disbelief about the departure.
You're really gone our Viking Girl
Reiterating the acknowledgment of the departure, emphasizing the reality of the situation.
Don't think you should have done that
Criticizing the decision to leave, suggesting it was not a wise choice.
We used to have fun Viking Girl
Reflecting on past enjoyable times with "Viking Girl."
But now it turns out you were not very happy
Realizing that despite outward appearances, "Viking Girl" was not happy.
You had me fooled you Viking Girl
Expressing feeling deceived by "Viking Girl."
Well sort of fooled
Qualifying the deception, acknowledging some level of awareness.
In our hearts we knew though you didn't tell
Contrasting the unspoken truth in their hearts with the lack of verbal communication from "Viking Girl."
You were a mess your life was hell
Describing a challenging and troubled life experienced by "Viking Girl."
And I wish I could have looked at you
Expressing a desire to have seen the struggles faced by "Viking Girl."
And said my friend this just won't do
Expressing regret for not intervening or offering support earlier.
You Viking Girl really gone
Reiterating the departure of "Viking Girl."
How is it possible this could have happened?
Expressing disbelief or questioning how the departure occurred.
We used to have fun Viking Girl
Reflecting on past enjoyable times again, emphasizing the contrast with the current absence of "Viking Girl."
But now you're gone
Confirming the permanent absence.
You were right here by my side
Recalling the physical proximity of "Viking Girl" in the past.
You were right here when I wanted you to be
Highlighting the availability and presence of "Viking Girl" when needed.
I'm not so sure if I was there when you needed me
Expressing uncertainty or guilt about being there for "Viking Girl" during difficult times.
In our hearts we knew though you didn't tell
Repeating the earlier contrast between unspoken truth and lack of communication.
You were a mess your life was hell
Reiterating the challenging life faced by "Viking Girl."
And I wish I could have looked at you
Expressing a desire to have recognized and addressed the struggles.
And said my friend this just won't do
Expressing regret for not intervening or offering support earlier (repeated from line 14).
You Viking Girl really gone
Reiterating the permanent departure of "Viking Girl."
