Sigh No More
Mumford & Sons Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This is not the end
Live unbruised we are friends
And I'm sorry
I'm sorry
Sigh no more, no more
One foot in sea one on shore
You know me
You know me
And man is a giddy thing
Oh man is a giddy thing
Oh man is a giddy thing
Oh man is a giddy thing
Love that will not betray you, dismay or enslave you,
It will set you free
Be more like the man you were made to be
There is a design,
An alignment to cry,
Of my heart to see,
The beauty of love as it was made to be
Love that will not betray you, dismay or enslave you,
It will set you free
Be more like the man you were made to be
There is a design,
An alignment to cry,
Of my heart to see,
The beauty of love as it was made to be
Love that will not betray you, dismay or enslave you,
It will set you free
Be more like the man you were made to be
There is a design,
An alignment to cry,
Of my heart to see,
The beauty of love as it was made to be
The lyrics of Mumford & Sons's song "Sigh No More" is about love and the different emotions and experiences that come with it. "Serve God, love me and mend" could be interpreted as a plea to fix a broken relationship or to heal the wounds caused by love. The following lines "This is not the end, live unbruised, we are friends, and I'm sorry, I'm sorry" suggest that the singer is willing to forgive and move past the pain caused by a former lover or friend.
The chorus "Sigh no more, no more, one foot in sea one on shore, my heart was never pure, you know me, you know me" highlights the fickle nature of love and relationships. It implies that love is a balancing act between the safety of solid ground and the risks one takes when venturing into the unknown. The line "my heart was never pure" could be interpreted as a confession of past mistakes or flaws.
The rest of the lyrics focus on the idea of love that does not betray or enslave, but instead sets one free to be the best version of oneself. The lines "Be more like the man you were made to be, there is a design, an alignment to cry, of my heart to see, the beauty of love as it was made to be" suggest that love has a purpose and a plan for each individual, and that finding true love means aligning with that purpose.
