Swans And The Swimming

Iron & Wine

Transposer:

Swans And The Swimming - Iron and Wine intro - verse - (throughout) ’Take me again’ she said thinking of him ’To the pond with the swans and the swimming’ Far from his room that familiar perfume How it left her aware she was naked The lesson she learnt as the memory served Is to marvel with love at the sunset And walking away at the dark end of day She will measure and break like a habit chorus - Oh how the rain sounds as loud as a lovers words Now and again she’s afraid when the sun returns verse - ’Take me again’ she said thinking of him ’I don’t care for this careful behavior’ A brush through her hair children kissing upstairs Keeps her up with her want for her savior The sun on the sand on her knees and her hands as she begs for her fish from the water But turned him away she’s a whip and a slave Given time she may find something better chorus - Oh how the rain sounds as loud as a lovers words Now and again she’s afraid when the sun returns outro - Please leave a comment if i’ve done something wrong cheers!

La chanson évoque une femme nostalgique qui se souvient d'un homme et exprime son désir de retourner aux moments heureux passés ensemble, symbolisés par un étang peuplé de cygnes. Elle fait face à ses propres émotions, oscillant entre le désir d'amour et les doutes qui l'habitent, conscient que la mémoire de cet amour la rend vulnérable. Les images de l'eau, du soleil et des enfants témoignent d'un quotidien mêlé à ses attentes, où elle cherche un sens et une rédemption. Le contexte montre une lutte intérieure, où elle aspire à la liberté tout en se sentant liée par ses propres choix et expériences. C'est un reflet des relations humaines et de leur complexité, où le bonheur et la peine coexistent.
