Song Meaning of “Blue Eyed Sally” by Huelyn Duvall
‘Blue Eyed Sally’ paints a sweet and tender picture of a young man’s love for a girl with gentle blue eyes. The song reflects on a time of innocent love that has flourished between the two despite the young man’s own doubts and misgivings. The lyrics focus on the idea of a hidden gem, the angelic beauty of this girl and the idea that her allure is beyond his understanding.
The chorus speaks of a time when they used to be together, but now a separation has drawn them apart. The man looks back at this time and regrets that it is no longer his; his expectations of what life could have been like have been changed and he feels his love for her is unrequited.
It is a reminder of the fragility of love and relationships, and that life can take away what we cherish most even when we believe it will stay. The song is a homage to brunette Sally, with all her beauty and charm, warning of the cruelty of the world that is yet to come.
