Yellow Rose Of Texas - The Eyes Of Texas

Elvis Presley

Transposer:

[Intro] [Verse 1] Oh the yellow rose of Texas is the only girl I love Her eyes are even bluer than Texas skies above Her heart’s as big as Texas and wherever I may go I’ll remember her forever because I love her so [Verse 2] There are so many roses that bloom along the way But my heart’s in Amarillo and that’s where it will stay With the yellow rose of Texas so I’d better get there fast ’Cause I know I was her first love and I want to be her last [Verse 3] Oh the yellow rose of Texas is the only girl I love Her eyes are even bluer than Texas skies above Her heart’s as big as Texas and wherever I may go I’ll remember her forever because I love her so [Instrumental] [Chorus] The eyes of Texas are upon you all the live long day The eyes of Texas are upon you you cannot get away he Do not think you can escape them at night or early in the morn The eyes of Texas are upon you till Gabriel blows his horn [Chorus] The eyes of Texas are upon you all the live long day The eyes of Texas are upon you you cannot get away he Do not think you can escape them at night or early in the morn The eyes of Texas are upon you till Gabriel blows his horn [Chorus] The eyes of Texas are upon you all the live long day The eyes of Texas are upon you you cannot get away he Do not think you can escape them at night or early in the morn The eyes of Texas are upon you till Gabriel blows his horn

La chanson évoque un amour profond pour une jeune fille, surnommée la rose jaune du Texas. Ses yeux, plus bleus que le ciel du Texas, et son cœur immense font chavirer le narrateur. Peu importe où il se trouve, il gardera un souvenir éternel de cet amour. Il exprime également sa détermination à revenir à Amarillo, sa ville d'attache, car il désire être son dernier amour, après avoir été son premier. Le refrain, quant à lui, souligne l'idée que les "yeux du Texas" veillent sur chacun d'entre nous continuellement, soulignant une sorte de présence divine ou protectrice qui ne nous abandonne jamais, jusqu'à ce que l'ange Gabriel annonce la fin des temps. Cette notion d'une vigilance constante ajoute une dimension spirituelle à l'ensemble de la chanson.
