- Missing LyricsI saw the queen
Swam out below her star on sea beneath
Though I lifted up my hands to her
She never lifted me
Oh, something's missing in me
I felt it deep within me as lovers left me to bleed alone
Found something sweet on the island with daughters of Eve
But through thick and thin they've gone away
And only left their grief
Oh, something's missing in me
I felt it deep within me as lovers left me to bleed alone
Something's missing in me
I felt it deep within me as lovers left me to bleed alone
Something's missing in me
Something's missing in me
Down here love wasn't meant to be
It wasn't meant to be for me
Down here love wasn't meant to be
It wasn't meant to be for me
Oh, something's missing in me
I felt it deep within me as lovers left me to bleed alone
Something's missing in me
I felt it deep within me as lovers left me to bleed alone
Something's missing in me
Something's missing in me
Something's missing in me
Something's missing in me
Swam out below her star on sea beneath
Though I lifted up my hands to her
She never lifted me
Oh, something's missing in me
I felt it deep within me as lovers left me to bleed alone
Found something sweet on the island with daughters of Eve
But through thick and thin they've gone away
And only left their grief
Oh, something's missing in me
I felt it deep within me as lovers left me to bleed alone
Something's missing in me
I felt it deep within me as lovers left me to bleed alone
Something's missing in me
Down here love wasn't meant to be
It wasn't meant to be for me
Down here love wasn't meant to be
It wasn't meant to be for me
Oh, something's missing in me
I felt it deep within me as lovers left me to bleed alone
Something's missing in me
I felt it deep within me as lovers left me to bleed alone
Something's missing in me
Something's missing in me
Something's missing in me
Something's missing in me

Possibly a reference to how many of us will put another person on a pedestal but they are nothing more than finite humans who will fail us in the end.

Several possible meanings, perhaps a reference to worshiping something within the nature (e.g. the sun) and attributing a feminine nature to it (e.g. the divine goddess).

I think the meaning is basically that she tried to fill herself with all these worldly things and they never made her feel whole. Something was always missing and that was God :)
