Bye Bye Blackbird
Winging Low with Hard Luck Tales: Bye Bye Blackbird Meaning
Lyrics
No one here can love or understand me
Feeling unloved and misunderstood by those around me.
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me
People share unfortunate stories, adding to my difficulties.
Pack up all my cares and woe, here I go, winging low
Deciding to leave behind all my troubles and sorrows, taking flight.
Bye, bye, blackbird
Saying farewell to the symbolic "blackbird," perhaps representing challenges or hardships.
Where somebody waits for me
Anticipating someone special waiting for me at my destination.
Sugar's sweet, so is she
Describing the sweetness of both sugar and the awaited person.
Bye, bye, blackbird
Reiterating the farewell to the "blackbird."
No one here can love or understand me
Repeating the theme of feeling unloved and misunderstood.
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me
More stories of misfortune being shared with me.
Make my bed and light the light, I'll arrive late tonight
Preparing for a journey, asking to make arrangements for my arrival.
Blackbird, bye, bye
Bidding farewell again to the symbolic "blackbird."
Bye, bye, blackbird
Repeating the goodbye to the challenges represented by the "blackbird."
Where somebody waits for me
Reiterating the expectation of someone waiting for me.
Sugar's sweet, so is she
Expressing the sweetness of both sugar and the awaited person once more.
Bye, bye, blackbird
Final farewell to the symbolic "blackbird."
No one here can love or understand me
Reaffirming the sense of being unloved and misunderstood.
Oh what hard luck stories they all hand me
Continuing to hear unfortunate stories from others.
Make my bed and light the light, I'll arrive late tonight
Preparing for my arrival, requesting to make necessary arrangements.
Blackbird, bye, bye
Final goodbye to the symbolic "blackbird."
