Sting: Fields of Gold Meaning
Song Released: 1993
Fields of Gold Lyrics
Upon the fields of barley
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in the fields of gold
So she took her love
For to gaze awhile
Upon the fields of barley
In his arms she fell as her...

I agree everyone can relate to the lyrics of this song, for me it relates to my Dad, it played in the background as he slipped away, and for me it was my childhood with him, hay bayling, being out in the counrty, we often walked in fields of gold, as a child playing under his watchful eye, he made promises he couldnt keep through not being able to express his emotion and his illness. I scattered his ashes on the farmland he grew up on...yes in a field of gold.
As weird as it might be I can now also relate this to my relationships, and love, often walking in a barley feild hand in hand, watching as it has grown andturned to gold over the months -

This is a couple who took vows in a second marriage. The first vows are the promises broken. They make love in the fields of gold. Years later their children play in the fields. Their promise has been kept.

I don't think this song needs interpretation. It is beautiful song about nostalgia of old days, love and hope that it is not over yet:
"But I swear in the days still left
We'll walk in the fields of gold" -

This song about dreams. It's describing the field in Stonehenge England and a field of holly trees.
This is an interpretation of the most favorite song from the 1990s music scene. It comes on the radio all the time. This has meaning that everybody can relate to.
