I Want You

Bob Dylan

Transposer:

| N.C. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The guilty undertaker sighs The lonesome organ grinder cries The silver saxophones say I should refuse you The cracked bells and washed-out horns Blow into my face with scorn But it's not that way I wasn't born to lose you I want you, I want you I want you, so bad Honey, I want you The drunken politician leaps Upon the street where mothers weep And the saviors who are fast asleep, they wait for you And I wait for them to interrupt Me drinking from my broken cup And ask me to open up the gate for you I want you, I want you Yes, I want you, so bad Honey, I want you How my fathers, they've gone down True love they've been without it But all their daughters put me down 'Cause I don't think about it Well, I'll return to the Queen of Spades And talk with my chambermaid She knows that I'm not afraid to look at her She is good to me and there's nothing she doesn't see She knows where I'd like to be But it doesn't matter I want you, I want you Yes, I want you, so bad Honey, I want you Now your dancing child with his Chinese suit He spoke to me, I took his flute No, I wasn't very cute to him, was I? But I did it, because he lied And because he took you for a ride Hum, because time was on his side And because I Want you, I want you Yes I want you, so bad Honey, I want you | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Cette chanson évoque un désir profond et inextinguible pour une personne, malgré les obstacles et les jugements extérieurs. Le narrateur se sent tiraillé entre l’envie de l'embrasser et les voix de la raison qui lui conseillent de s’éloigner. Il parle de figures solitaires et de déceptions amoureuses, soulignant la complexité des relations humaines et le poids des attentes familiales. Dans un contexte où la société semble alourdie par des désillusions, le protagoniste continue de désirer ardemment cette connexion, comme un phare dans la nuit. Les références à des personnages et à des situations symboliques renforcent ce sentiment de quête, où le besoin d'amour se heurte à la réalité du monde qui l'entoure.
