In an exquisite blend of melancholy and regret, our songstress seems to be navigating the choppy waters of love lost. She's left marooned in a sea of 'what ifs,' haunted by the ghost of a lover she inexplicably abandoned. Her heart, steeped in the intoxicating wine of past memories, is stuck on a loop, replaying scenes with her absent lover. The allure of freedom promised by the break of day is too ephemeral to distract from her longing. She's ready for an ecstatic death at sea (read: drowning in her emotions) than face a lonely journey down life's highway. It's a poignant reminder that sometimes, we're our own worst enemies when it comes to matters of the heart, leaving us beating empty drums of regret and wondering why we did what we did.
