Maggie May

Melissa Etheridge

Transposer:

(x2) Wake up Maggie I think I've got something to say to you.      It's late September and I really should be back at school.      I know I keep you amused but I feel I'm being used. Oh Maggie I couldn t have tried anymore.  You led me away from home just to save you from being alone. You stole my heart and that's what really hurts.          The morning sun when it's in your face really shows your age.      But that don't worry me none in my eyes you're everything.      I laughed at all your jokes my love you didn't need to coax. Oh Maggie I couldn t have tried anymore.  You led me away from home 'cuz you didn't wanna be alone. You stole my heart and that's a pain I can do without.          All I needed was was a friend to lend a guiding hand.      But you turned into a lover and Mother what a lover you wore me out.      All you did was wreck my bed and in the morning kick me in the head. Oh Maggie I couldn t have tried anymore.  You led me away from home 'cuz you didn't want to be alone. You stole my soul...  I love you anyway.           I suppose I could collect my books and get back to school.      Maybe steal my mama's cue make a living out of playing pool.      Maybe find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helping hand. Oh Maggie I I couldn t have tried anymore.  You made a first class fool out of me I'm as blind as a fool can be. You stole my soul I couldn't leave you if I tried.          I couldn't leave ya.. I couldn't leave ya.. no no nooo... I couldn't leave ya...  Woahoooo... Maggie...

La chanson évoque un homme qui s'adresse à une femme nommée Maggie, lui révélant ses sentiments et ses regrets. Il réalise qu'il a sacrifié ses études et sa vie pour elle, tout en se sentant manipulé par ses désirs d'éviter la solitude. Malgré la douleur qu'il ressent à cause de cette relation tumultueuse, il confesse son amour pour elle et l'attrait qu'elle exerce sur lui. Le contexte de cette chanson peut être interprété comme une exploration des relations complexes et des sacrifices émotionnels que l’on fait par amour. L'interaction entre l'attachement et la douleur est centrale, mettant en lumière les défis d’un amour déséquilibré où une personne semble être en position de force, entraînant l'autre sur un chemin difficile.
