Lovelorn
Leaves' Eyes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You are a wandering, shining star
You light up the sky, you take me so far
(Take me far)

One crystal inside my lonely heart
You light up my life, I embrace your light
(You're my light)
You're my healer, I am lovelorn
In the cool breeze, I hear your sweet voice
I'm your treasure, I am forlorn
In the rain, I feel your warm tears

I can't forgive God and myself
I should have been there to give you strength
(Be your strength)

One kingdom below the dark blue sea
Hides my lovely Amelie
(Amelie)

You're my healer, I am lovelorn
In the cool breeze, I hear your sweet voice
I'm your treasure, I am forlorn
In the rain, I feel your warm tears

Lovelorn, you are gone
Lovelorn, lovelorn
(Lovelorn, lovelorn)

Where is your, where is your
Now you are gone
Lovelorn, lovelorn
(Lovelorn)

Where is your, where is your
Now you are gone
Lovelorn, lovelorn
(Lovelorn)

You are my healer, I am lovelorn
In the cool breeze, I hear your sweet voice




I'm your treasure, I am forlorn
In the rain, I feel your warm tears

Overall Meaning

The song Lovelorn by Leaves' Eyes is a powerful expression of the pain and sorrow of losing someone whom the singer deeply loved. The lyrics use several images and metaphors to convey this theme. The first verse likens the beloved to a "wandering, shining star" that lights up the singer's world and takes them far away. The singer sees the beloved as a "crystal inside [their] lonely heart," suggesting that they were a source of comfort and hope in a world of darkness and loneliness.


The second verse is more introspective, as the singer reflects on their own feelings of guilt and regret for not being there when their beloved needed them. They express a sense of disillusionment with God and themselves, suggesting that they have lost faith in any higher power that would allow such pain and suffering to exist. The image of "one kingdom below the dark blue sea" that hides the loved one, Amelie, adds a mystical dimension to the song, as if the beloved has become part of a timeless and magical realm beyond the reach of the living.

LYRICS:

01. Norwegian Lovesong
I grew up by the sea… I played under the sun…
Come to me, come into my dreams… this is my light of life
Between the bluebells sits a girl with blond braids
A blue-eyed angel with strawberry cheeks
The spell has bound me I was living a dream
Norwegian homeland my heart belongs to you
I climbed mountains so high, I discovered the deep
Long to be part of this dream, this is where my heart beats

02. Tale of the Sea Maiden
Fantasies in my head, I drift away to all seas
Deep underneath the ocean I heard the tale of the sea maid
All this beauty, it lights up my life, I ride the waves to far-off seas
And I lay on the golden sand, I reflect the sun, I make you dream
I glow with the silver light, thousand-and-one stars bright
This labyrinth of life takes me to your home shore

03. Ocean’s Way
The way of the ocean, touch my heart like fire
I cannot control you, you have deeper layers
You’re alive and you’re wild when you’re nearer to me
I lean forward to touch you but you surprised me
When I lean against you I will only fall through
Sometimes you seem to sleep, then a storm’s coming through…
Fear the ocean’s way!
Oh should I fear you, are you caught in anger?
Gods cannot control you, winds make you go higher
If I swim to the ground I will need to go up
You will turn me around when the storm’s coming through
When the morning dawns bright I admire the silveriness inside you
I look into this mirror
The way of the ocean… it’s the waves ruled by the winds…

04. Lovelorn
You are a wandering shining star
You light up the sky, you take me so far (take me far)
One crystal inside my lonely heart
You light up my life, I embrace your light (you’re my light)
You’re my healer, I am lovelorn
In the cool breeze I hear your sweet voice
I’m your treasure, I am forlorn
In the rain I feel your warm tears
I can’t forgive God and myself
I should have been there to give you strength (be your strength)
One kingdom below the dark blue sea
Hides my lovely Amelie, I love you Amelie
Lovelorn, you are gone, lovelorn
Where is your home now… now you are gone… lovelorn…

05. The Dream
Where do you sleep, what do you dream, what do you need to be free?
I see a little island where ebb and flow meet
We curl up by the fire, your breath in my ear
We’ve found our paradise where fruits and flowers grow
The ocean’s ground is white, reflects the moonlight that glows
I cover you warm, fall asleep upon my chest
I protect you from harm, and I will quench your thirst
When do we meet our love proceeds… when you are here I am real too…
You’re my queen, you’re my angel
You’re the love I breathe to live
You’re my star, you’re my leading light
You’re the beauty I see at night

06. Secret
I opened my eyes and greeted the new day
I followed your pathway to the secret of my pains
Can you free me from these unsafe grounds
Secret, tell me where did she grow
I’m moving away but captured in your chains
I saw you in those waves, those eyes, such pain
My heart knows… my mind knows… I am torn
My mind knows when you’re gone… I’m forlorn

07. For Amelie
Why don’t you feel me, why can’t I hold your hand
(You) never said that you’d leave me and I know you are somehow
I held you up every time you were down
Your crying stopped when I was around… but…
Why don’t you love me enough to stay with me?
Now tell me truly, was it there in your heart too?
All that I’m left with is a dream of me and you
You filled my soul with your beauty and with hope
We’re different although we were just like water in sand
I held you close when you fell to the ground
And new you’ve torn all my hope apart, you could have said good-bye

08. Temptation
In my head I hear your voice, is this the voice of my master
In my chest I sense a spear, are these the looks of my mistress
In my head I hear your voice, why do I suffer?
In my chest I sense a spear, why can’t I see you?
Have I become a bounden slave? Shall I be lost in your spell?
What do I fear? Is this a dream?
My bitter spirit has become a burden
Lady fair, mistress of my dreams (temptation)
Let us share body, soul, and sorrows
I rise and walk into the waves, will you save me?
You interrupt my intellect, you take what you demand

09. Into Your Light
I’ve heard your song and I’ve seen the light in your eyes
And it took me so long to see straight through the night
And through you…
You’re the depths of my own mind
And you’re the heights of my creation… wait for me…
Alone but strong when you’re in my sight
Your love hit me like a stroke… take me with you…
Take me to that place where I feel so safe, into your light I dive
I’ve taken this step, and we’re intimate now
And I am joining you world, a formation of love
You shine through me
Into your light… Enter my mind…
Mermaid medium of light for the morning that comes
For the orchid that grows, love me against all odds
You defeated the doubt that was stuck inside me

10. Return to Life
Inside I feel life, I rise into your light
I rise and leave the dream behind
I’m returning to life, returning to life…
By the sound of your voice and the love that you give
I see – I have found how deep my roots have grown
You arms open, I’m devoted
In sunshine and shadow, you love and protect me
I’m returning to life, I’m back in your arms
Mother you give me hope when I’m cold and alone

11. Leaves Whisper
Tell me now, haven’t you heard the leaves whisper
Secrets of heaven and earth and of a thousand springs?
Follow the wind and the storm at their command
Sigh, hear the sigh of the waves and the grass shiver
Haven’t you heard what the leaves whisper?
We’ve been seeking the truth, the ancient songs of man
Tell me why haven’t you felt the rain dropping
Falling from heaven on earth and makes life flow?
Watching the growing of grass and lakes smiling
Witness the noon of the night and skies dwelling
Tell me, haven’t you heard what the leaves whisper now?
Haven’t you heard, we are seeking the truth?
Who calls on you now?
