Beggars Game

Dan Fogelberg

Transposer:

[Intro]                              [Verse] I saw her first in a beggar’s game             Her eyes were wild but her laugh was tame.                Those people knew her by another name.                   I knew that she’d be mine        I knew that she’d be mine.            [Chorus] She took me in on a winter’s night The air was brittle and the moon was bright. My heart was heavy but her touch was light. Deep in the dance we wandered Deep in my heart she fell. [Interlude]                             [Verse] The candles glistened and the water gleamed. She drew a bath and the windows steamed; She looked like every woman ever dreamed In the heart of a lonely man In the heart of a lonely man. [Chorus] She took my blindness and she led me through As night retreated and the daylight grew. And with the first rays of the sun I knew Love had another captive Love had another fool.   [Post-Chorus] The spell is broken and the chains fall free Finally my heart has come home to me It seems I’ve waited an eternity.        [Instrumental]                                                                                                                                            [Verse] I saw her first in a beggar’s game              Her eyes were wild but her laugh was tame.                   Those people knew her by another name.                     I knew that she’d be mine           I knew that she’d be mine.               [Post-Chorus] The spell is broken and the chains fall free Finally my heart has come home to me It seems I’ve waited an eternity.        [Outro]

La chanson évoque une rencontre marquante entre le narrateur et une femme, rencontrée dans un jeu de rôles, où elle ne se manifeste pas seulement par son apparence, mais surtout par son charme subtil. Dans une nuit d'hiver, leurs destins se croisent alors qu'il souffre d'une certaine solitude. Sa présence illumine son cœur, et il se laisse emporter par l'espoir d'un amour naissant. Les images de bougies, d'eau éclatante et de vapeur sont empreintes de sensualité, illustrant un moment de passion et d'intimité. Cette femme apparaît comme l'incarnation de tous les rêves d'un homme désespérément seul, et ensemble, ils traversent un voyage émotionnel, passant de l'obscurité à la lumière. La transformation qu’il ressent est profonde, témoignant de la puissance de l’amour qui libère l’âme et ramène un sentiment d’appartenance.
