It was originally a Swedish folk song. It's about a young woman who's been arranged to marry this rich guy, who she doesn't love, so she locks herself away in her room while the guests are outside celebrating the coming wedding. Days pass and she still won't come out. Eventually, the guy she actually wants to marry (Roland) arrives in his ship, and she runs away with him.
