Avalon
Duo Gadjo and their Hot Friends Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
beside the bay,
but I left my love in Avalon
and sailed away.
How I dream of him in Avalon
from dusk 'til dawn,
and so I think I'll travel on
(...)
I found my love in Avalon
beside the bay,
but I left my love in Avalon
and
sailed away.
I-I-I dream of him in Avalon
from
dusk 'til dawn,
and
so I think I'll travel on
to Avalon.
The lyrics of "Avalon" speak of a lost love found in the titular location. The singer found their love "beside the bay" in Avalon, but ultimately had to leave, sailing away and leaving their love behind. Despite this physical separation, the singer still dreams of their love in Avalon "from dusk 'til dawn," and decides to travel back to Avalon in hopes of reuniting with their lost love.
On a deeper level, "Avalon" could be interpreted as a yearning for a simpler time and a desire to return to a place of comfort and familiarity. The repetition of the phrase "I found my love in Avalon" reinforces this idea, as if the singer is holding onto the memory of love as a symbol of what was once good in their life. The decision to "travel on to Avalon" can be seen as a metaphor for a journey towards personal growth and healing, a quest to rediscover what was lost.
