Chinese

standard tuning verse 1 I see you from the sky And I wonder how long it will take me to get home I wait for an hour or so at the carousel I have a cigarette to pass the time Cause the traffic’s hell Chorus I don’t want anything more Than to see your face when you open the door You’ll make me beans on toast and a nice cup of tea And we’ll get a Chinese and watch TV Tomorrow we’ll take the dog for a walk And in the afternoon then maybe we’ll talk I’ll be exhausted so I’ll probably sleep And we’ll get a Chinese and watch TV verse 2 You wipe the tears from my eye And you say that all that it takes is a phone call I cry at the thought of being alone and then I wonder how long it will take til I’m home again Chorus I don’t want anything more Than to see your face when you open the door You’ll make me beans on toast and a nice cup of tea And we’ll get a Chinese and watch TV Tomorrow we’ll take the dog for a walk And in the afternoon then maybe we’ll talk I’ll be exhausted so I’ll probably sleep And we’ll get a Chinese and watch TV verse 3 I know it doesn’t seem so fair But I’ll send you a postcard when I get there Chorus I don’t want anything more Than to see your face when you open the door You’ll make me beans on toast and a nice cup of tea And we’ll get a Chinese and watch TV Tomorrow we’ll take the dog for a walk And in the afternoon then maybe we’ll talk I’ll be exhausted so I’ll probably sleep And we’ll get a Chinese and watch TV

La chanson évoque l'impatience et le désir de retrouver un proche après une séparation. L’artiste partage ses réflexions sur le voyage qui la ramène chez elle, où elle aspire à des moments simples et réconfortants, comme déguster un plat entre amis et passer du temps ensemble devant la télévision. Elle exprime également ses émotions de solitude et la joie anticipée de retrouver son quotidien près de ceux qu'elle aime. Les gestes quotidiens et les échanges tendres sont au cœur de son bonheur. Le contexte semble tourner autour de la nostalgie et des petites choses qui font le bonheur, marquant un contraste entre l'effervescence du voyage et la douceur du foyer. Tout ceci crée une atmosphère chaleureuse et familière, rappelant l'importance de ces petits moments partagés dans nos vies.
