On My Way To Work

Paul McCartney

Transposer:

On my way to work I rode a big green bus I could see everything From the upper deck People came and went Smoking cigarettes I picked the packets up When the people left But all the time I thought of you How far away the future seemed How could I have so many dreams? And one of them not come true On my way to work I bought a magazine Inside a pretty girl Who liked to water-ski She came from Chichester To study history She had removed her clothes For the likes of me --------------- But all the time I thought of you How would you know that I was there How could I soul-search everywhere Without knowing what to do On my way to work As I was clocking in I could see everything How it came to be People come and go Smoking cigarettes I pick the packets up When the people leave But all the time i think of you How far away the future seems How could I have so many dreams And one of them not come true On my way to work ---------- But all the time I thought of you How would you know that I was there How could I soul search everywhere Without knowing what to do On my way to work On my way to work

Dans cette chanson, le narrateur évoque son trajet quotidien au travail, observant les gens autour de lui tout en étant plongé dans ses pensées. Il se concentre sur ses rêves et sur une personne qui lui tient à cœur, se demandant comment tant de ses aspirations pourraient rester inassouvies. Alors qu'il fait face aux réalités de la vie, il se retrouve tiraillé entre ses désirs et les aléas de son existence. Le contexte semble illustrer la routine quotidienne, avec cette image du bus et des passants qui symbolisent la monotonie de la vie de bureau. Malgré cela, les pensées du protagoniste le ramènent à ses espoirs et à ses sentiments, ajoutant une touche de réflexion personnelle à son trajet. C’est une façon de montrer comment, même dans les moments les plus ordinaires, nos pensées peuvent nous transporter vers des rêves et des désirs profonds.
