I Can See Arkansas

Anne Murray

Transposer:

[Intro] [Verse 1] There’s a natural wonder between us But it doesn’t seem natural to me That you can walk away from the love we made Here in Tennessee [Verse 2] Leave everything that we worked for To start another life I saw you drive across the Memphis bridge But I don’t believe my eyes [Chorus] I can see Arkansas across the Mississippi I can see a big river barge headin’ down to New Orleans I can see the cotton fields on the other side And the sun going down again Oh I can see Arkansas but I still don’t see Why the love we had should end [Interlude] [Verse 3] If it proved how much I love you I’d swim this ol’ river tonight I’d bet my soul against the undertow For the chance to hold you tight [Verse 4] But there’s more than a river between us And I can’t swim that far As hard as I try I just can’t drown The memories of where you are [Chorus] Oh I can see Arkansas across the Mississippi I can see a big river barge headin’ down to New Orleans I can see the cotton fields on the other side And the sun going down again Oh I can see Arkansas but I still don’t see Why the love we had should end [Chorus] Oh I can see Arkansas across the Mississippi I can see a big river barge headin’ down to New Orleans I can see the cotton fields on the other side And the sun going down again Oh I can see Arkansas but I still don’t see Why the love we had should end [Chorus] Oh I can see Arkansas across the Mississippi I can see a big river barge headin’ down to New Orleans I can see the cotton fields on the other side And the sun going down again Oh I can see Arkansas but I still don’t see Why the love we had should end

Cette chanson évoque la douleur d'une séparation amoureuse, malgré une connexion profonde entre deux personnes. Le narrateur se retrouve à contempler les paysages de l'Arkansas et du Mississippi, se remémorant l'amour qu'il a partagé avec l'autre. Alors qu'il observe les champs de coton et les barges naviguant vers le sud, il se demande comment leur relation a pu prendre fin, ressentant une distance insurmontable entre eux. Le contexte semble se dérouler dans le sud des États-Unis, avec des images marquantes de la nature et des grands espaces, symbolisant à la fois la beauté et la tristesse de cette séparation. L'ensemble dépeint un mélange de nostalgie et d'impuissance face à l'amour perdu.
