Cover art for Alchemy lyrics by Above & Beyond

The first impression that I got it is that is someone that kinda refuses to accept that her loved one doesnt love her anymore, love someone else "how can it be that you love her".

Still trying to figure it out what exactly is alchemy. maybe the thing that brought then together in the first place and now is the thing that make him love someone else?

My Interpretation

I think Alchemy is like intuition or the "chemistry" and the speaker is depressed because it's gone.

"It was Alchemy To sing to me Your freedom song To make love where there was none Alchemy Now it’s all gone And she is the golden one. "

She is saying that there was once a time when things clicked between them but the other lover moved on for the "golden one." Like she's depressed because she's not.
