Turn The Compass Round

Heather Nova

Transposer:

Intro Verse We sailed east in summer on the Azores high For days I felt a silence in my soul We headed south in winter to the trade winds Like a heartbeat I could feel the ocean roll Prechorus My mother taught me how to be strong My father showed me how to carry on Chorus Now I turn the compass round and head out on the ocean I turn the compass round and head out on the sea Cause I’ve made my way I’ve walked this world I’ve tried to be a better girl I’ve held my head up held my own Now all I wanna be is home Verse Sometimes I think I’m never gonna find A sweetness that I knew when I was young And in this faded photograph it seems Like everything is shining in the sun Prechorus My mother taught me how to be free My father showed me how to live the dream Chorus Now I turn the compass round and head out on the ocean I turn the compass round and head out on the sea Cause I’ve made my way I’ve walked this world I’ve tried to be a better girl I’ve held my head up held my own Now all I wanna be is home is home is home I’ve made my way I’ve walked this world I’ve tried to be a better girl I’ve held my head up held my own Now all I wanna be is home I’ve made my way I’ve walked this world I’ve tried to be a better girl I’ve held my head up held my own Now all I wanna be is home is home is home End on A

Cette chanson évoque un voyage intérieur et extérieur, marquant des étapes importantes de la vie. L'artiste se rappelle de ses origines et de l'éducation reçue, où sa mère lui a appris la force et sa mère, la liberté. Elle ressent un désir profond de retrouver la douceur et l'innocence de son enfance, tout en affirmant son indépendance. En tournant le compas, elle exprime sa volonté de trouver sa voie et de revenir à un sentiment d'appartenance, cherchant un véritable foyer après avoir parcouru le monde. Cette quête de retour à soi résonne comme un élan vers la paix et l'authenticité.
