The Swing Of Things

A-ha

Transposer:

( ) They say the world’s an eventful place You give me news I don’t want to know You say that I should care that I should speak my mind Oh but how can I speak of the world rushing by With a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes Have we come to the point of no turning back Or is it still time to get into the swing of things Let us walk through this windless city I’ll go on till the winter gets me "Sleep..." you wrote "Sleep my dear" in a letter somewhere Oh but how can I sleep with your voice in my head And an ocean between us and room in my bed Have I come to the point where I’m losing the grip Or is it still time to get into the swing of things u>F# When she glows in the dark and I’m weak by the sight Of this breathtaking beauty in which I can hide There’s a worldful out there of people I fear But given time I’ll get into the swing of things Yes when she glows in the dark and I’m struck by the sight I know that I’ll need this for the rest of my life >Eu>F#/u/u What have I done what lies I have told I’ve played games with the ones that rescued my soul Have I come to the point where I’m losing the grip Or is it still time to get into The swing of things

La chanson évoque une lutte intérieure face aux tumultes du monde et aux émotions complexes que cela engendre. L’artiste se questionne sur sa capacité à s'exprimer et à prendre part à la vie autour de lui, tout en se sentant accablé par des souvenirs et des séparations. Les images de solitude et de beauté, ainsi qu’une recherche d’authenticité dans les relations sont omniprésentes. Dans un contexte où les défis de la vie moderne peuvent sembler écrasants, le protagoniste semble attirer notre attention sur l’importance de se reconnecter avec soi-même et les autres. Il aspire à retrouver une certaine harmonie dans ce monde qui lui échappe, tout en cherchant une lumière dans l’obscurité qui l’entoure. C'est une réflexion sur la capacité humaine à surmonter les épreuves et à revenir à l'essentiel.
