Papa Can You Hear Me

Barbra Streisand

Transposer:

Oh God - our heavenly Father. Oh God - and my father who is also in heaven. May the light  - of this flickering candle Illuminate the night the way Your spirit illuminates my soul.                        Papa can you hear me? Papa can you see me? Papa can you find me in the night? Papa are you near me? Papa can you hear me? Bm7-5                 E7sus  E7 Papa can you help me not be frightened? Looking at the skies I seem to see a million eyes Which ones are yours?                 Where are you now            Am7               G7sus that yesterday has waved goodbye And closed it’s doors?       Fmaj7            B7sus  B7 The night is so much darker.     Emaj7           Db7sus  Bb7 The wind is so much colder The world I see is so much bigger now that I’m alone. Papa please forgive me. Try to understand me. Papa don’t you know I had no choice? Can you hear me praying Anything I’m saying Bm7-5                    E7sus       E7 Even though the night is filled with voices? I remember everything you taught me Every book I’ve ever read.                  Can all the words in all the books Help me to face what lies ahead?        Fmaj7             B7sus  B7 The trees are so much taller     Emaj7          Db7sus  Bb7 And I feel so much smaller. The moon is twice as lonely And the stars are half as bright. Papa how I love you. Papa how I need you. Papa how I miss you Kissing me goodnight.

Cette chanson exprime un profond désir de connexion avec un père qui a disparu, tout en cherchant du réconfort dans la foi et le souvenir. La narratrice s'adresse à son papa, implorant son aide et son soutien face aux incertitudes de la vie, se sentant perdue dans l'obscurité de la nuit. Elle évoque des images de solitude et de nostalgie, rappelant à quel point sa présence lui manque. Le contexte semble être une réflexion sur la perte et l'absence, illustrant le besoin de guidance et d’amour paternel, surtout dans les moments difficiles. Les métaphores de la nuit et des étoiles marquent ce sentiment d'isolement, tandis que la spiritualité se mêle à son appel à l'aide.
