Like China

Phil Collins

Main groove:                        My mom and daddy both say I must be crazy to be this infatuated But I know you know We got something special never felt before You get me going just looking at you And the feeling’s not hard to recognise so Alright I’ll come out in the open with it Will you walk out with me Cos you’re the first girl I’ve ever loved Tell me do you feel the same way Well I’ll show you I’m not like all the rest   Cos I know who I am Your skin is smooth as silk and your eyes like stars You’re just like a picture book standing there But I can’t go on No I can’t go on thinking you don’t feel the same way that I do I’ll be so careful I’ll hold you like china I’ll promise not to hurt you I’ll hold you like china You won’t feel nothing I’ll hold you like china ’Cos I know it’s your first time Your mum and dad don’t like me And they tell me every time I call around to see you I don’t know why Cos I always straighten my tie and comb my hair I know your brother thinks that I’m a limp wristed wimp from the other side of town I know he’s got me wrong Because I’m really not like that I’ll tell you why You’re the first girl I’ve ever loved Tell me do you feel the same way Well I’ll show you I’m not like all the rest ’Cos I know who I am I remember the very first time I held your hand And that was the last time you were so close to me But I can’t go on No I can’t go on thinking you don’t feel the same way as I do I’ll be so careful I’ll hold you like china I’ll promise not to hurt you I’ll hold you like china You won’t feel nothing I’ll hold you like china ’Cos I know it’s your first time I know you know and now I want to I want to tell everybody I know you know and now I want them all to see

La chanson évoque l’innocence et la beauté des premiers amours. L’artiste exprime son sentiment d’attachement profond pour une fille, soulignant à quel point cette expérience est unique et précieuse pour lui. Il ressent une forte connexion avec elle, mais il craint que ses sentiments ne soient pas réciproques. Le contexte présente également une dynamique familiale délicate, car les parents de la jeune fille semblent réticents à l’idée de cette relation. Malgré les doutes et les obstacles, il promet de la traiter avec soin, métaphoriquement comme de la porcelaine, et il est déterminé à lui montrer qu’il est différent des autres garçons.
