I love this song.
It’s not actually sung by the Kinks, since it’s only a demo.
As Sokorny says it’s unclear if the lover has passed or if they are simply separated. I like to think it’s about someone who’s left Earth. It describes the longing and the hopeless (yet patient) sadness that come with grief. It’s a love song, but I don’t know if it’s necessarily about romantic love. I think it’s simply about a very deep fondness of someone and the expression of love that is grief.
