A Ship Without A Sail

Ella Fitzgerald

Transposer:

Introd.: EB/Bb I go to this or that place I don’t know what day it is Or if it’s dark or fair I seem alive and well My head is just a hat place Somehow that’s just the way it is And I don’t really care I go to this or that place I seem alive and well My head is just a hat place My breast an empty shell And I’ve a faded dream to sell All alone all at sea Why does nobody care for me When there’s no love to hold my love Why is my heart so frail Like a ship without a sail out on the ocean Sailors can use a chart I’m on the ocean Guided by just a lonely Hart Still alone still at sea Still there’s no one to care for me When there’s no hand to hold my hand Life is a loveless tale For a ship without a sail Bridge Still alone still at sea Still there’s no one to care for me When there’s no hand to hold my hand Life is a loveless tale For a ship without a sail

La chanson exprime un profond sentiment de solitude et de désespoir. Le narrateur se sent perdu, errant d'un endroit à un autre sans vraiment se rendre compte du temps qui passe, presque comme s'il flottait sans but. Cette métaphore de la vie comme un navire sans voile évoque l'absence d'amour et de lien, rendant chaque moment vide de sens. La souffrance de l'isolement est palpable, illustrée par l’idée qu'il n'y a personne pour lui tendre la main dans ce voyage solitaire. L'œuvre semble également parler d'un rêve évanoui, accentuant la mélancolie qui se dégage des mots. Ce voyage au cœur de la solitude dévoile la quête désespérée de connexion et d'affection qui manque cruellement.
