Going For The Gold

Don McLean

Transposer:

[Verse 1] I chased a lot of rainbows Down a lot of roads Thinking love was something To be bought or sold [Verse 2] But I finally found a treasure And it’s right here in your eyes Now my golden dreams are of golden rings Precious love without a price [Chorus] I’m going for the gold For the heart that’s in you I’m going for the love That I know will be true I’ve had enough Of those one night stands I’m going for the gold that’s in a wedding band   [Verse 3] I followed those illusions That sparkled in the night But they were fantasies That disappeared in the light [Verse 4] The midnight fires that burned so bright Turn to ashes in the dawn I didn’t realize how empty I was inside Until you came along [Chorus] I’m going for the gold For the heart that’s in you I’m going for the love That I know will be true I’ve had enough Of those one night stands I’m going for the gold that’s in a wedding band [Solo] [Chorus] I’m going for the gold For the heart that’s in you I’m going for the love That I know will be true I’ve had enough Of those one night stands I’m going for the gold that’s in a wedding band [Chorus] I’m going for the gold For the heart that’s in you I’m going for the love That I know will be true I’ve had enough Of those one night stands I’m going for the gold that’s in a wedding band [Chorus] I’m going for the gold For the heart that’s in you I’m going for the love That I know will be true I’ve had enough Of those one night stands I’m going for the gold that’s in a wedding band

Cette chanson évoque la quête de l'amour authentique et durable, contrastant avec les relations éphémères et sans valeur. L'artiste partage son parcours, où il a poursuivi des illusions et des histoires passagères, pour finalement réaliser que le véritable trésor se trouve dans les yeux d'une personne aimée. Ces rêves se transforment en désirs de construire une vie ensemble, symbolisée par l'engagement d'une alliance. Le contexte semble refléter une sorte de maturation personnelle, une prise de conscience que l'amour véritable ne peut pas être superficiel ni commercialisé, mais qu'il se trouve dans la profondeur des sentiments et la promesse d’un avenir partagé. C'est un message universel sur la valeur inestimable de l'amour sincère.
