The Way Lifes Meant To Be

Electric Light Orchestra

Transposer:

Intro verse 1 Well I came a long way to be here today and I left you so long on this avenue... And here I stand in the strangest land not Knowing what to say or do...   As I gaze around at these strangers in town I   guess the only stranger is me... And I wonder yes I wonder... is this the   way life’s meant to be... verse 2 Although it’s only a day since I was taken away and left   standing here looking in wonder... Oh the crowd at my feet maybe it’s just the old street but   every thing that I Know lies under... And when I see what they’ve done to this place that was   home shame is all that I feel... Ohhh And I wonder yes I wonder... is this the   way life’s meant to be... Bridge; Too late too late to cry the people say Too late for you too late for me... You’ve come so far nah you know ev’ry thing my friend   Love can see the one that’s out my way Bass solo; Oh---------------wah la... And I wonder yes I wonder... is this the   way life’s meant to be... verse 3 As I wonder around this wreck of a town where people   never speak aloud...  with it’s ivory towers and it’s plastic   flowers I wish I was back in 1981 Just to see your face in stead of this place now I know what   you mean to me. Ohhhh And I wonder yes I wonder... is this the   way life’s meant to be...    Finale:                And I wonder yes I wonder wonder wonder wonder is this   the way life’s meant to be. Ohhhhhhh   (2x)      Is this the way life’s meant to be mmmmm Is this the way life’s meant to be I wanna know now Is this the way life’s meant to be.

La chanson évoque un voyage introspectif, où le narrateur se retrouve dans un endroit étrange, loin de son foyer. Il ressent une profonde nostalgie et un sentiment d'étrangeté en observant une ville qui a changé, se demandant si tout cela correspond vraiment à ce que la vie est censée être. Malgré le temps qui passe et les souvenirs d'antan, il exprime une certaine tristesse face à l'évolution du monde et une quête de sens dans ce tumulte. La mélancolie et la quête de réponses le poussent à se questionner sur le véritable sens de la vie et ce qu'elle devrait être.
