She Was

Camille

Transposer:

When she was home she was a swan When she was out she was a tiger And a tiger in the wild is not tied to anyone When she was lost, she was a toad The day I found her on the road I gave her water and a rose And as she stretched The sun rose Go, go, go, Go away, go away Go, go, go, Go away, go away When she was young She was a cow And all day Flong She milked the stars She taught me "Women to survive Must be unfaithful to their child" Of all the wonders of the world She was a lady with a bird She must have had so many lives Was it the first? Was it the last? Go, go, go, Go away, go away Go, go, go, Go away, go away When she was ill she was a whale She was so patient, she would wait Until I sang her by the lane The sweetest tunes to ease her pain When she was old she was an owl I saw her swaying in the sky And when she died inside my arms I realised she was a cat Go, go, go, Go away, go away Go, go, go, Go away, go away Sometimes I wonder (go) If my child (go) Will have her eyes (go) (Go away, go away) To see through me (go) And when I die (go) And I am born again (go) (Go away, go away) What will I be (go) A stone? (go) A cat? (go) A tree? (Go away, go away) Go, go, go, Go away, go away Go, go, go, Go away, go away Go, go, go, Go away, go away

Cette chanson évoque une femme aux multiples facettes, passant par différentes incarnations au fil de sa vie. Elle est tour à tour majestueuse, sauvage, perdue, patiente, sage et finalement fragile. À travers ces métaphores animalières, l'artiste montre comment chaque expérience personnellement vécue façonne notre identité, tout en soulignant les défis et les leçons de la vie. Lorsqu'elle fait face à la souffrance et à la mort, il en résulte une réflexion sur la transformation et la continuité de l'existence. Le morceau aborde aussi les questionnements sur la filiation et l'héritage, laissant ouverte la possibilité d'une réincarnation symbolique, où l'on se demande ce que l'on devient après avoir quitté ce monde. Cette quête d'identité et de transcendance se mêle subtilement à une reconnaissance des cycles de la vie.
