AI Interpretation
"Never Had Another" broadens the earlier warning into a chant where love still cannot say enough, so the listener is told to become mountain, top, sailing ship, sea, and repeated song.
This version leans harder into transformation, asking the beloved to become not just one figure of endurance but an entire environment. The handwritten insertions make the movement more direct: be the top, and be there Just Like you. Falling repeats until it almost becomes rhythm instead of disaster, and the closing good as a song makes recurrence feel survivable.
Never Had Another: same scaffolding, falling in again and again, good as a song. A slightly gentler landing.
