Bell Bottom Blues
Sailing Love's Loneliness: Bell Bottom Blues Unveiled
Lyrics
I got the bell bottom blues
I am experiencing deep sadness and longing.
'Cause my sweetie is a sailor
My romantic partner is a sailor.
And he's sailin' somewhere on the sea
He is currently at sea, sailing somewhere unknown.
I got the bell bottom blues
I continue to feel the profound sadness of missing him.
'Cause I'm craxy 'bout a sailor
My emotions are intense because I love a sailor.
And I don't know when he's comin' back to me
I am uncertain about when he will return to me.
I shake my head and refuse
I reject advances from other men.
When the fellas come a-callin'
When other men ask me out, I decline.
And they want to take me on a date
Men express interest in dating me.
I got the bell bottom blues
My sadness persists while other girls find love.
While the other girls are fallin'
While others pursue romance, I patiently wait at home.
I just sit around the livin' room and wait!
I spend my time waiting for his return.
I wonder if he's lookin' at
I contemplate whether he sees the same moon in the night sky.
The same moon I'm lookin' at
I imagine us both looking at the moon.
Every night I'm lookin' at the moon!
Every night, I gaze at the moon.
I know if he's prayin' for
I am curious if he prays for the same things I do.
The same thing I'm prayin' for
I pray for our reunion.
We'll be together soon!
We hope to be reunited soon.
I got the bell bottom blues
My longing continues, wearing "bell bottom blues."
Just a-waitin' for a letter
I eagerly await a letter from him.
Heaven knows I'm as lonely as can be!
I am extremely lonely.
I got the bell bottom blues
My sadness persists, and I can't feel better.
And I won't be feelin' better
I won't find relief until he returns.
Till my sailor boy comes sailin' home to me
I long for the return of my sailor boy.
I wonder if he's lookin' at
I continue to wonder if he shares the same moon view.
The same moon I'm lookin' at
We both gaze at the moon each night.
Every night I'm lookin' at the moon!
Nightly, the moon is a shared connection.
I know if he's prayin' for
I hope he prays for our reunion.
The same thing I'm prayin' for
Our shared prayers bring us closer.
We'll be together soon!
Our reunion is anticipated.
I got the bell bottom blues
I still have the "bell bottom blues" as I wait for his letter.
Just a-waitin' for a letter
Anticipation grows as I await communication.
Heaven knows I'm as lonely as can be!
Loneliness persists intensely.
I got the bell bottom blues
My emotional state won't improve until he returns.
And I won't be feelin' better
Relief and happiness are contingent on his homecoming.
Till my sailor boy comes sailin' home to me
My heartache will continue until my sailor boy returns.
Till my sailor boy comes sailin' home to me
My emotional well-being depends on his safe return.
