@[Kahiara:35260] Actually I think the husband passed away,
"She sang for you last night
She heard you were calling"
Many people say they have felt, heard, or seen their loved ones after they have passed.
"Don't be scared now
Close your eyes
She holds guard tonight
Go on forward no remorse
Life will take it's course"
This is said to the late husband by a third part (never named), who encourages him to pass on. Because life will eventually continue. The phrase "holds guard" refers to the ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wake_(ceremony) ) which is a Christian ceremony held after someone dies. Now it is usually held right after the funeral, but in most celtiic countries the wake is held before the funeral.
"She danced with you last night so you will remember
All you have shared, a lifetime."
This sentence feels as if the only thing it wants to convey is their history together, namely, husband and wife. For the rest it just refers back to the first verse.
Don't stop gypsy
Don't you give up your ways and settle down you're still young
There's still a lot of life that hasn't been seen
Take the world as it comes and get your rest in between
Chance will never come around again.
Good time highway
With the wind in your hair as you're ridin' to wherever you please
You can take your guitar and play your songs to the stars
While they twinkle above your head
And who cares what tomorrow brings.
Don't you tangle with romance cause it'll leave you alone
And crying in the end
The life that you lead must be simple and free
It's not your fault my friend
Don't stop gypsy.
Don't stop gypsy
Don't you give up your ways and settle down you're still young
There's still a lot of life that hasn't been seen
Take the world as it comes and get your rest in between
Chance will never come around again
Don't you give up your ways and settle down you're still young
There's still a lot of life that hasn't been seen
Take the world as it comes and get your rest in between
Chance will never come around again.
Good time highway
With the wind in your hair as you're ridin' to wherever you please
You can take your guitar and play your songs to the stars
While they twinkle above your head
And who cares what tomorrow brings.
Don't you tangle with romance cause it'll leave you alone
And crying in the end
The life that you lead must be simple and free
It's not your fault my friend
Don't stop gypsy.
Don't stop gypsy
Don't you give up your ways and settle down you're still young
There's still a lot of life that hasn't been seen
Take the world as it comes and get your rest in between
Chance will never come around again

I believe this is another amazingly on point and nuanced commentary on the insanity that follows emotionally abusive relationships. The abuser has no anxieties, no emotional pain, or salience/memory for that matter, so the survivor appears to be the crazy one, obsessed with the abuse and that buzzword that seems to ignite arguments about diagnosing people without a degree, etc. funny how you say the words domestic violence, abuse, abuse survivor and boom the subject changes. Anyways, I especially relate to her midnights becoming afternoons, complex PTSD often leads to this phenomenon, whether due to purposeful sleep deprivation by the abuser, or just hyper vigilance associated with the PTSD, along with the fear of facing people, especially your loved ones, who
Never actually understand, even if they try, because all they see is you, on fire, screaming about the arsonist that no one ever sees, and who has been spreading lies about your alleged mental instability, deceptive personality, etc. the whole time. While the last thing survivors need is more blame, our society supports a narrative that blames the objectively innocent party because the blatantly guilty party has spent their entire lives fabricating a persona and we’re just being human, and human psychology is quite counterintuitive especially in the context of trauma. Look at Amber Heard. Vilified and not believed, regardless of what any abuse survivor could recognize as a fellow survivor instantly. But Johnny depp is a malignant narcissist, a man, and wealthy as all get out. It’s sick.
