In “Love’s Dart”, an adventurer searches for gold in the desert, despite being desperately in need of water. As the song progresses, it’s revealed that he’s actually looking for a golden-haired woman. The song builds to an ambiguous conclusion – it’s not clear whether he finds her, or dies in vain.
[Verse 1]
You ride out into the strongest sun and you know
Gonna leave you for dead as the sun over head, you don't shun
Thirst comes on and the water's all you want
But there's gold in your eyes and it keeps you alive to move on
[Chorus]
Love's dart, no longer sharp
The end is in sight but your aim takes you out of the mark
Love's dart, broken apart
If you're walking in circles, you'll find yourself back at the start
[Verse 2]
The wind kicks up and the day, it grows so old
If you keep on going, you'll make it out of this dust bowl
You think of the one you knew that was so fair
You remember about the girl with the golden hair
[Chorus]
Love's dart, no longer sharp
The end is in sight but your aim takes you out of the mark
Love's dart, broken apart
If you're walking in circles, you'll find yourself back at the start
[Verse 3]
In the near distance, you see a form
You recognise the face but you're feeling warm
Rub your eyes and see there's no one around
Lie down for a while and she'll stay with you till you move on
[Chorus]
Love's dart, no longer sharp
The end is in sight but your aim takes you out of the mark
Love's dart, broken apart
If you're walking in circles, you'll find yourself back at the start
