Long Black Limousine

Elvis Presley

Transposer:

There's a long line of mourners Driving down our little street Their fancy cars are such a sight to see oh yea They're all rich friends who knew you in the scene And now they've finally brought you Brought you home to me When you left you know you told me That some day you'd be returnin' In a fancy car all the town to see oh yea Well now everyone is watching you You finally had your dream yea You're ridin' in a long black limousine You know the papers told of how you lost your life oh yea The party the party and the fatal crash that night Well the race along the highway oh the curve you didn't see When you're riding in that long black limousine Through tear filled eyes I watch as you pass by oh yea A chauffeur a chauffeur at the wheel dressed up so fine Well I never I never never never Oh my heart all my dreams yea they're with you In that long black limousine Yea yea they're with you in that long black limousine Yea yea they're with you in that long black limousine

La chanson évoque le chagrin de quelqu'un qui pleure la perte d’un être cher, maintenant transporté dans une limousine noire lors de ses funérailles. Les riches amis qui l’entourent rappellent une vie de succès et de fête, mais cette célébration est assombrie par la tragédie d'un accident. L'interprète évoque des souvenirs, le rêve jamais réalisé et l’injustice de cette perte, soulignant à quel point tout semble désormais dénué de sens. Les larmes aux yeux, il observe le cortège, se rendant compte que cette élégante voiture symbolise à la fois la gloire passée et la douleur persistante de son absence.
