WATCHING THE WAVES - DAVID GRAY from GOLD IN A BRASS AGE (2019) =============================== [INTRO]   /     /     /     /      /     /      /      [Verse 1] I’m here watching the waves Just how long can it be Till that melody strays Through my mind and I’m cancelled Can’t see no wood for the trees         Can’t tell no land from the sky When you’re in up to your knees        You soon find out who your friends are        [VERSE II] Ah for the taste of it sweet One more time from the top Thoughts like crumbs in the sheets Words thrown like coins in a cup Just one more house in the rain Just one more spoonful of salt And now I’m at it again Banging on like it’s my fault [CHORUS] Everything you are Everything you are Everything you are I long to be Everything you are Everything you are Everything you are I long to be    [VERSE III] I gave it all I could give I took that ghost for my bride Went day by day trying to live With my heart on the outside I watched the shape of it rise To dance like wind through the wheat And steal the light from your eyes In the space of a heartbeat [PRE-CHORUS] Everything fills with distance Yeah everything     [CHORUS] Everything you are Everything you are Everything you are I long to be Everything you are Everything you are Everything you are I long to be Everything you are Everything you are Everything you are I long to be Everything you are Everything you are Everything you are I long to be        [OUTRO] Songs that push through the dirt Ploughing these roads into fields Sounding the notes of the words Till everything fills with distance

La chanson évoque un moment de contemplation où l'auteur se retrouve à observer les vagues, symbolisant une quête intérieure et une recherche de sens. Il exprime un sentiment de confusion, incapable de différencier la solidité du sol et l'immensité du ciel, tout en réalisant que les véritables amis se révèlent dans les moments difficiles. À travers ses réflexions, il parle d'aspirations et de désirs inaccessibles, tout en ressentant le poids des souvenirs comme des miettes éparpillées. Au fil des vers, il fait face à ses émotions et à ses regrets, aspirant à quelque chose de plus grand que lui. Cette introspection se déploie sur fond de mélodies, traduisant des combats internes et une beauté fragile qui se cache dans la vulnérabilité.
