The song is also tragic. It's about a girl who pines away for the rest of her life after a sailor who wants to commit, but just doesn't have it in him. I think it kind of adds insight into the human mind. We want to think we're capable of doing everything for love, or doing the right thing, but sometimes we just cant and we're clouded by our selfish interests.
@rockenpnay i feel like you missed the whole idea of the song, yes it is sad that the sailor leaves but its not that he is incapable of doing anything for love if you listen the lyrics say "my life, my love, and my lady is the sea" this proves quite the opposite of your statement it shows that you can do anything for love even leave a girl like brandy because his love is the sea
