She's Gone
The Ragged Jubilee Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Have you ever kissed her lips as she muttered it was wrong?
Have you listened to the trees as they softly sighed?
Or watched the feeling slowly fade like the moonlight from her eyes?
Well she's gone,
Well she's gone,
Well she's gone, gone,
Has your woman said to you she wants another man?
And the one she claimed to love been one you thought was friend?
Have you lay alone at night ashamed of all you've done?
Or pondered love with all your sin from the barrel of a gun?
Well she's gone,
Well she's gone,
Well she's gone, gone,
Lord she's gone.
Well she's gone,
Well she's gone,
Well she's gone,
Lord she's gone.
In the Ragged Jubilee's song "She's Gone," the lyrics speak of lost love and the pain that comes with it. The first verse asks if the listener has ever experienced the beauty of nature and the intimacy of a moment with a loved one that was quickly broken. The use of past tense verbs implies a feeling of nostalgia and regret for what has been lost. The repetition of "she's gone" in the chorus emphasizes the finality of the loss and the pain that comes with it.
The second verse speaks to the betrayal of a loved one, specifically when a woman leaves a man for another man who they thought was a friend. The feeling of shame and regret is palpable in the lyrics and the comparison of love to a loaded gun creates a feeling of danger and desperation. The chorus is repeated again to emphasize the pain of loss and the feeling of being alone.
Overall, the song's lyrics speak to the pain of lost love and the feeling of being betrayed by someone who was once trusted. The use of nature imagery highlights the beauty and fragility of love, while the loaded gun metaphor shows the danger that comes with opening oneself up to love and the potential for heartbreak.
