I don't hold any resentment towards her. She was very loving and patient. She stuck with me through many hard things. I still love her so much, though..... Loving is easy. Forgetting is hard

      NoobsGetGP I'm 100 percent aware this song was written by Morrissey. I feel that when I listen to Jeff Buckley's version that there is a different meaning behind it because of his cirumstances. I take it as a more literal meaning in some of the lyrics such as "i can feel the soil falling over my head."

      Just like Hendrix for instance, he was one of those artists that were meant to extend his musical legacy for years, to age like wine like few musicians can, but never could. Is so frustrating to think that this was just the tip of the iceberg, but we will never be able to see what they could have done over the years.

    And you even spoke to me and said:
    "Well if you're so funny
    Why are you on your own tonight?
    And if you are so clever
    Why are you on your own tonight?
    And if you're so very entertaining
    Why are you on your own tonight?
    And if you're so very good looking
    Why do you sleep alone tonight?

    "I know it's over and it never really began"
    I interpret this song (and video, crucially) as the mother figure not being real. The boy never knew her. As a child, he imagined her and talked to her in his head, hoping one day she'd come home, but she never did. Now he's growing up, he realises he can't hold onto this naive belief of his and has to let her go, but he keeps coming back to her because without her, he's completely alone. He tortures himself over it, feeling he's not worthy of love because his mother abandoned him. As a kid, he believed that there must've been a good reason she split on him and that sooner or later, she'd come back. But the older he gets, the less and less he is able to entertain this fantasy. Still, he continues to talk to her, this ghost, this pretend hope of his, being the only person he's ever been able to console in. But he's beginning to accept that it's all in his head, that his mother can't really save him from his own demons, so he continues to helplessly cry out to her, "oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head", but she never talks back...

      No, Morrissey has lost another "straight" lover to a woman. He's crying to the only person he can open up to - his mum. I love Jeff but you have to listen to Morrissey to get the nuance of this song.

      I think it's a lot more simple than you think it is. I interpret "and it never really began" as him just wishing they had more time together. Him saying mother throughout the song just gives it a kind of desperation and need for warmth and kinship that was never there.

I have been a Smith's fan since the 80's, since my mother used to play the Smiths version in her car long time ago...but I have never had the gut to write something here....This version is the most touching song i have ever listen for the past 30 years....Morrisey....Jeff.... life is worth to be lived to remember all these moments...Love to my mother, father, and brother for the memories... and to you Jeff. And love to those are still looking for something in your life.

I live a life that will be long without having the chance to witness Jeff's striking voice enter my virgin eardrums of his pure and majestic voice. We will suffer the loss for all that time can see.
    Jeff, if there is a heaven I hope we can see each other in solace and peace.

    When I met him I was in a very difficult time. With depression and no treatment, I couldn't talk to anyone about my feelings. I had stopped talking to my mother and she didn't know the reason and honestly I didn't either. I was angry and at the same time I felt nothing, it was a complete emptiness in which I could not leave. I listened to his songs reminding me of things that had never happened.
    Two were times when his melodies, his words were almost the last I'd hear.
    I never had a heart broken by a boy, so his songs are not dedicated to me but I see that there is a deep grief in them.
    Nowadays I am doing well with a treatment that I have completed, next year 2 years. I keep hearing their music that makes me more passionate every day at his job but leaves me with tight heart.
    His voice gives me goose bumps and his words are worthy of a beautiful poem.
    Ah if he were alive. It would have been a rock star.

    He was such a great vocalist. Raw and uncensored. His ability to embody a song is what made him special. Even when he misses a note or the pitch is a bit off, it is still magical and feels real, right and human. That being said, I don't think Buckley would have appreciated what seems to be a poor autotune job done on his vocals on this version (0:30)...
