When Gord says "we rode hard for the boat, hard as we could"
I think he is clearly talking about a relationship that he put as much as he had into but it just didn't work out. The reason the girl says "no tears" is because it's nothing they can be upset about anymore because they did all they could.
The crowd being born part kinda confuses me but this is what i think it means... Gord and his girl are both gunna try many times to find new people (the crowd) to be with, and each time they try to be with someone else it's going to fail "only born die" Him saying he doesnt' watch fir asign in the night or to watch a bomb go off in a young girl's life, i think this means he usually never particularly cares for a girl too much.
A reluse is a person who lives in seclusion or apart from society, often for religious meditation. So I'm thinking maybe the girl was a virgin which is rare these days.
When Gord talks about waving goodbye and getting on board, I think he means that he's saying goodbye to the life he's been living to be with this girl and she's alrwady on board cause she's choosing to be with him.
When he says who are you, you rode out of view, obviously she changed at somepoint and I'm guessing this is what tore them apart.
"Who broke my heart from the start
Made me work, work so hard
To get where I am
To where I'd let you do it all again"
This is my favorite part of the song.
I think Gord mmeans that from the start he knew it wasn't going to work because they were such opposities ( him the way he was and her being a good girl from the way it sounds)
She made him change a lot of who he was to be with her but he doesn't have any regrets.
When he says who are you what do i do without you...like i said she obvioulsly changed and isnt the girl gord fell in love with and he just wants that girl back (what do i do without you)
that's my favourite part of the song too.
I think it's pretty much about him feeling like he's putting more into the relationship than she is. Beautiful song!
