Memories

Leonard Cohen

Transposer:

             Frankie Laine he was singing Jezebel               I pinned an Iron Cross to my lapel               I walked up to the tallest and the blondest girl I said "Look you don't know me now but very soon you will So won't you let me see" I said "won't you let me see" I said "won't you let me see Your naked body?"                    "Just dance me to the dark side of the gym Chances are I let you do most anything I know you're hungry I can hear it in your voice And there are many parts of me to touch you have your choice Ah but no you cannot see She said "no you cannot see She said "no you cannot see My naked body"                                                                                                                           So we're dancing close the band is playing Stardust              Balloons and paper streamers they are floating down on us               She says "You've got a minute left to fall in love" In solemn moments such as this I have put my trust And all my faith to see I said all my faith to see I said all my faith to see Her naked body                      Her naked body                          Her naked body                          Her naked body                          Her naked body                          Her naked body  .......

Stories of the Street

La chanson évoque une rencontre entre deux personnes lors d'une danse dans un gymnase. Le narrateur, plein de confiance, approche une jeune femme et exprime son désir d'intimité, offrant une promesse d'un moment particulier ensemble. Malgré son attirance, la jeune femme refuse de se montrer complètement, jouant avec l'idée d'une connexion plus profonde tout en gardant une part de mystère. Les mots évoquent des thèmes comme le désir, l'hésitation et la vulnérabilité humaine, ancrant cette scène dans un moment suspendu entre rêve et réalité. Cela rappelle que, même dans l'attirance physique, il y a souvent des barrières émotionnelles qui persistent.
