Ever Said Goodbye
Unveiling Love's Mystery: Ever Said Goodbye
Lyrics
You were a gypsy, I was one too
The speaker and the person addressed were both wanderers or free-spirited individuals.
I only was one so I could meet someone like you
The speaker became a wanderer hoping to encounter someone like the addressed person.
And in the morning how blue the sky
The morning sky appeared melancholic or sorrowful to the speaker.
I don't know why I ever said goodbye
The speaker regrets parting ways with the addressed person and doesn’t understand their reason for doing so.
You were a fortune-teller, you read my hand
The addressed person had insight into the speaker's future and predicted their departure.
You said I'd leave you and go off to other lands
The addressed person foresaw the speaker leaving for other places.
You said with a smile that one day I'd make you cry
Despite predicting future sadness caused by the speaker, the addressed person seemed to do so with a sense of acceptance.
I don't know why I ever said goodbye
The speaker expresses confusion and regret over the decision to leave the addressed person.
Don't know why the seasons change
The speaker feels uncertain about the reasons behind changes in life, like seasons shifting.
Don't know why I am so strange
The speaker feels perplexed about their own nature or behavior.
Don't know why I lose my heart again each time I hear your name
The speaker consistently falls in love or gets emotionally attached each time they hear the addressed person's name.
Don't know why I didn't stay, don't know why I didn't say
The speaker is unsure why they didn't remain or express their feelings for the addressed person.
That I didn't know what love was but I loved you anyway
Despite not fully comprehending love, the speaker still loved the addressed person.
Over the mountains, across the sea
The speaker contemplates whether there's someone far away who remembers or thinks about them.
Is there someone who sometimes thinks of me?
The vastness of the ocean and mountains symbolize distance and separation.
How deep the ocean, how blue the sky
The speaker reflects on the depth of emotions and the sadness experienced after parting ways.
I don't know why I ever said goodbye
Reiteration of the speaker's confusion and regret over the decision to say goodbye.
