Undertow

Genesis

Transposer:

The curtains are drawn now the fire warms the room Meanwhile, outside, wind from the north-east chills the air It will soon be snowing out there And some, there are, cold they prepare for a sleepless night Maybe this will be their last fight But we're safe in each other's embrace, All fears go as I look on your face Better think awhile or I may never think again If this were the last day of your life my friend Tell me what do you think you would do then Stand up to the blow that fate has struck upon you Make the most of all you still have coming to you Lay down on the ground and let the tears run from you Crying to the grass and trees and heaven finally on your knees Let me live again let life come find me wanting Spring must strike again against the shield of winter Let me feel once more the arms of love surround me Telling me the danger's past, I need not fear the icy blast again Laughter and music and perfume linger here And there, and there, wine flows from flask to glass and mouth As it soothes confusing our doubts And soon, we feel, why do a single thing today There's tomorrow sure as I'm here So the days they turn into years, And still no tomorrow appears Better think awhile or I may never think again If this were the last day of your life my friend Tell me what do you think you would do then Stand up to the blow that fate has struck upon you Make the most of all you still have coming to you Lay down on the ground and let the tears run from you Crying to the grass and trees and heaven finally on your knees Let me live again let life come find me wanting Spring must strike again against the shield of winter Let me feel once more the arms of love surround me Telling me the danger's past, I need not fear the icy blast again

La chanson évoque une atmosphère de chaleur et de réconfort, tandis qu'à l'extérieur, le froid et la neige se préparent à envahir le monde. À travers les paroles, on ressent un contraste fort entre la sécurité d'un amour partagé et les incertitudes de la vie obligée à faire face aux épreuves. Elle invite à réfléchir sur l’importance de chaque moment, en se demandant comment on réagirait si c'était notre dernier jour, et suggère de profiter de chaque instant, de se laisser porter par les émotions, même si cela implique de faire face à nos larmes. Dans ce cadre, l’idée de la transition entre l’hiver et le printemps symbolise l'espoir de renouveau et de réconfort qui revient après des périodes difficiles. Il est question de la façon dont, malgré la froideur et les luttes, l’amour et la camaraderie peuvent réchauffer nos âmes, alors que le temps continue de s’écouler, nous rappelant l’importance de vivre pleinement.
