| The Moody Blues – Gypsy Lyrics | 6 years ago |
| I've always thought this song refers to a comet or asteroid. A comet is of course an insentient object, but in the song takes on human emotions. The writer imagines a mythological creature streaming across the universe, 'traveling in a panic all direction blind' and 'aching for the warmth of a distant sun'. Stars and planets are relatively fixed in position, but a comet, like a gypsy, is not fixed, but roams free across the galaxy. | |
