The Haunting Melancholy of Lost Love in 'Blue And Sentimental'

The song 'Blue And Sentimental' by The Mills is a poignant exploration of heartache and longing. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person who is deeply affected by the end of a romantic relationship. The recurring theme of 'blue' symbolizes sadness and melancholy, a common metaphor in music and literature to express deep emotional pain. The dreams described as 'blue dreams' and 'just won't come true dreams' emphasize the sense of hopelessness and unfulfilled desires that accompany the loss of a loved one.

The song delves into the emotional turmoil that follows a breakup. The line 'It rains all the time since you said goodbye' uses the weather as a metaphor for the protagonist's constant sorrow. The imagery of 'the skies in my eyes and my heart all cry' further illustrates the depth of their sadness, suggesting that their entire being is consumed by this grief. This vivid portrayal of emotional pain is a hallmark of The Mills' style, known for their ability to convey complex emotions through simple yet powerful lyrics.

The haunting presence of the lost lover is another central theme in the song. Despite the separation, the protagonist feels unable to move on, as expressed in the lines 'If you don't want me, why do you haunt me?' This haunting presence keeps the protagonist in a state of perpetual sadness, unable to escape the memories of the past. The song captures the essence of being 'blue and sentimental,' a state where the past love continues to influence the present, making it difficult to find peace and happiness again.
