Peter, Paul and Mary

Transposer:

[Intro]               [Verse 1] Truth with all it’s far out schemes    Lets time decide what it should mean       G               Gsus4                 G It’s not the time but just the dreams that die. And sometimes when the room is still  Time with so much truth to kill Leaves you by the window sill so tied      Without a wing    to take you high Without a clue      to tell you why. Now I just want to keep my name not bother anybody’s game     G            Gsus4             G Without ideas of gold or fame or -  insane heights. I don’t want a lot of money I don’t want a Playboy Bunny Just a love to call me honey.  late at night In my arms    by my side in my arms     late at night. [Chorus] But I don’t know I ain’t been told Ev’rybody wants a hand to hold. They’re so afraid of being old So scared of dying so unknown And so alone rollin’ home.    [Verse 2] Well I see the ones who crawl like moles    Who for a front would trade their souls       G               Gsus4           G A broken mirror’s the only hole for them; And for you who’d exchange yourselves  Just to be somebody else Pretending things you never felt or meant; Hey you don’t live      what you defend  You can’t give      so you just bend. Now if you care what people think   Like they supplied some missing link;          G                  Gsus4               G They’ll just stand back and watch you sink so slow. They’ll never help you to decide  They’ll only take you for a ride After which they’ll try and hide the fact that they don’t know What you should do      where you should go   What you should do      where you should go. [Chorus] But I don’t know I ain’t been told Ev’rybody wants a hand to hold. They’re so afraid of being old So scared of dying so unknown And so alone rollin’ home.    [Verse 3] There’s nothing big I want to prove No mountains that I need to move    G                 Gsus4              G Or even claim what’s right or true for you. My sights my songs are slightly charred  You might think they miss their mark But things are only what they are and -  nothing new But for me     I think they’ll do    But for me      I think they’ll do. Well I can see a king and queen a beggar falling at my feet;       G               Gsus4                 G They all must see the same sad dreams at night; Futility and senseless war pit the rich against the poor While cause is buried long before the fight For what was wrong    for what was right  It’s just the strong   who ever says what’s right. [Chorus] But I don’t know I ain’t been told Ev’rybody wants a hand to hold. They’re so afraid of being old So scared of dying so unknown And so alone rollin’ home.

La chanson évoque une quête de sens et une réflexion sur les désirs humains. Elle aborde les illusions de la richesse et de la célébrité, tout en soulignant le besoin fondamental d'amour et de connexion. L'artiste exprime une certaine mélancolie face à la peur de la solitude et à l'angoisse liée au temps qui passe, en mettant en lumière le désir d'une vie authentique et simple. Dans un monde où les apparences peuvent être trompeuses, la chanson insiste sur la difficulté de se connaître vraiment et de rester fidèle à soi-même. Au fil des vers, elle dépeint une réalité où chacun cherche une main tendue, tout en ressentant l'angoisse de l'inconnu et la peur de vieillir. Cela crée un tableau poignant de l'expérience humaine, où chacun navigue entre rêves et désillusions.
