Billy Joel

Transposer:

This tab is of Sometimes a Fantasy from Billy Joel’s 1980 album Glass Houses. Intro: x2 verse 1: I didn’t want to do it but I got too lonely I had to call you up in the middle of the night I know it’s awful hard to try to make love long distance But I really needed stimulation Though it was only my imagination It’s just a fantasy It’s not the real thing It’s just a fantasy It’s not the real thing Sometimes a fantasy Is all you need verse 2: When am I gonna take control get a hold of my emotions Why does it only seem to hit me in the middle of the night You told me there’s a number I can always dial for assistance I don’t want to deal with outside action Only you can give me satisfaction It’s just a fantasy It’s not the real thing It’s just a fantasy It’s not the real thing Sometimes a fantasy Is all you need verse 3: Sure it would be better if I had you here to hold me Be better baby but believe me it’s the next best thing I’m sure there’s many times you’ve wanted me to hear your secrets Don’t be afraid to say the words that move me Anytime you want to tell them to me It’s just a fantasy It’s not the real thing It’s just a fantasy It’s not the real thing Sometimes a fantasy Is all you need OUTRO It’s just a fantasy (It’s just a fantasy) It’s not the real thing (It’s not the real thing) It’s just a fantasy (It’s just a fantasy) It’s not the real thing (It’s not the real thing) It’s just a fantasy (It’s just a fantasy) It’s not the real thing (It’s not the real thing) It’s just a fantasy (It’s just a fantasy) It’s not the real thing (It’s not the real thing) GUITAR SOLO STARTS AND FADE OUT STARTS It’s just a fantasy (It’s just a fantasy) It’s not the real thing (It’s not the real thing)

Cette chanson évoque la solitude et le besoin d'une connexion, même si celle-ci n'est que le fruit de l'imagination. Le protagoniste ressent une forte envie d'amour, mais se rend compte que maintenir une relation à distance rend les choses compliquées. Malgré tout, il trouve un certain réconfort dans ses fantasmes, admettant que parfois, l’imagination peut suffire à combler le vide. Le contexte pourrait être celui d'une relation éloignée, où les émotions prennent le dessus, surtout durant les moments de vulnérabilité nocturne. C'est un rappel que même lorsque la réalité n'est pas à portée de main, les rêves et les désirs peuvent improviser une forme de satisfaction.
