Blue Bucket Of Gold Lyrics

One, two, three

My blue bucket of gold
Friend, why don't you love me?
Once the myth has been told
The lens deforms it as lightning

Raise your right hand
Tell me you want me in your life
Or raise your red flag
Just when I want you in my life

Search for things to extol
Friend, the fables delight me
My blue bucket of gold
Lord, touch me with lightning

Raise your right hand
Tell me you want me in your life
Or raise your red flag
Just when I want you in my life

What is the Meaning of Blue Bucket Of Gold?

Delving into the realm of emotional vulnerability, this piece serves as a poignant exploration of unrequited love and longing. The "blue bucket of gold" symbolizes the wealth of emotions and affection that the speaker holds for someone who doesn't reciprocate their feelings. The plea, "Friend, why don't you love me?" underscores this sentiment. The repeated lines about raising a right hand or red flag allude to the speaker's desire for clarity - whether it be acceptance or rejection. The references to myths, fables, and divine intervention suggest that the speaker is grappling with reality, perhaps hoping for a miraculous change in their favor. Overall, Stevens paints a vivid picture of the human yearning for love and acceptance 💔.
