Splitsville Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But try to find her
And the trail is cold
She makes the stars shine high above her
And God I love her
Where has she gone?
She mourns the fall of every sparrow
Never pierced her heart
She's gone, and oh the hours wasted
The fruits untasted
Where has she gone?
I don't know
Where has she gone?
She warms the world from deep inside her
But try to find her
And the trail is cold
She makes the stars shine high above her
And God I love her
And God I love her
Where has she gone?
I don't know
Where has she gone?

Yet, she is also described as someone who has not been touched by love, as Eros' arrow has never pierced her heart.
