Grandsons

Cat Stevens

Transposer:

Wish I could watch them jumping round calling names Kicking cans and playing tag hide in every place Wish I could see them now and even join in their games How different life would be but I've got no time for silly chitter-chatter I'm on my way That's why my blood's still warm and I'm not getting better Time's passing away Because I've got a thing about seeing my grandson grow Wish I could buy them toys rubber balls and trains Watch them see how tall they grow make it day by day Oh I want nothing more than to see them laugh and play Life would be so different then but I've got no time for silly chitter-chatter I'm on my way 'Cause while my blood's still warm and my mind doesn't matter I'm going to pray Because I've got a thing about seeing my grandson grow That we got no time for silly chitter-chatter I'm on my way 'Cause while my blood's still warm and my mind doesn't matter I'm hoping to stay Because I've got a thing about seeing my grandson grow

Cette chanson évoque le désir profond d'un grand-parent de voir grandir son petit-fils, de partager des moments simples et joyeux à ses côtés. Elle exprime une nostalgie pour la légèreté de l'enfance, ainsi qu'une certaine urgence face à la fuite du temps. Le protagoniste aspire à participer aux jeux d'enfants et à créer des souvenirs inoubliables, tout en reconnaissant que sa vie est actuellement remplie de préoccupations et d'obligations. Le message central tourne autour de cette volonté de vivre pleinement chaque instant avec son petit-enfant, soulignant l'importance des liens familiaux et du bonheur simple. La chanson invite à réfléchir sur ce que signifie vraiment profiter de la vie et des relations qui comptent.
