Left Handed Kisses

Andrew Bird

Transposer:

I don’t believe everything happens for a reason To us romantics out here that amounts to high treason I don’t go in for your star-crossed lovers In the heart of a skeptic There’s a question that still hovers near Verse For it begs the question How did I ever find you Now you got me writing love songs With a common refrain like this one here baby x2 And all your left handed kisses Were just prelude to another Prelude to your back handed love song baby But it begs a question How did I ever find you Drifting gently through the gyre Of the great Sargasso sea Atlantic Ocean Got me writing love songs With a common refrain like this one here Solo Em x4 Verse The point your song here misses Is that if you really loved me You’d risk more than a few 50 cent Words in your backhanded love song So it begs a question How did I ever find you Drifting gently through the gyre Of the great Sargasso sea Atlantic Ocean The point your song here misses You got me writing love songs Is that you really love me With a common refrain like this one here here (Baby) Is prelude to another of your backhanded love song Coda/Outro E|--0--2--4--| Now it’s time for a handsome little bookend Now it’s time to tie up all the loose ends Am I still a skeptic or did you make me a believer? If you hesitate you’ll hear the click of the receiver

Cette chanson aborde le thème des doutes amoureux et des nuances de la romance. Le narrateur exprime son scepticisme vis-à-vis des histoires d'amour idéalisées, tout en interrogeant la façon dont il a pu rencontrer une personne qui l'inspire à écrire des balades. Il évoque des "baisers gauchers", symboles de gestes tendres mais ambigus, qui semblent cacher des sentiments plus complexes qu'il ne paraît. Dans son cheminement, il se demande si cette relation pourrait réellement transcender ses réserves initiales, remettant en question l'authenticité des sentiments de l'autre. L'idée de la mer Sargasso, avec ses courants mystérieux, ajoute une dimension poétique, représentant les aléas de l'amour et du destin. Ainsi, la chanson navigue entre passion et doutes, laissant le protagoniste aux prises avec ses propres émotions.
