| Nick Drake – Black Eyed Dog Lyrics

Isn't the black eyed dog actually depression rather than suicide? We he sings "the black eyed dog he called at my door" is he refereing to the onset of depression? However i think "A black eyed dog he called for more" is possibly about suicide.
Its a very moving song. |

Is this song about the break up of a relationship? The references to drowning and the reteating tide all seem to be about loss. |

Definately, and does any line sum this up better than "And he's never kept waiting, 'cos he pays the landlord's wage" |

I agree its definately about being in a happy, contented relationship that you think will last for the rest of your life. But the really interesting thing in the song is verse 3 which puts a shadow on this happy image. It reminds you how fickle a relationship can be, and however stong it maybe be it could be broken by either person. |
