That's Just The Way It Is

Phil Collins

Transposer:

All day long he was fighting for you And he didn’t even know your name Young men come and young men go But life goes on just the same And I don’t know why Why do we keep holding on I don’t know why Pretending to be oh so strong Oh why Is there something I don’t know Or something very wrong with you and me or maybe That’s the way it is That’s just the way it is. They’ve been waiting for word to come down They’ve been waiting for you night and day They won’t wait any longer for you It may already be too late And I don’t know why... You see the dying you feel the pain What have you got to say If we agree that we can disagree We could stop all of this today It’s been your life for as long as you can remember But you cannot fight no more You must want to look your son in the eyes When he asks you what you did it for ’Cos all day long he was fighting for you And he didn’t even know your name Young men come and young men go But life goes on just the same I don’t know why...

La chanson évoque le combat de ceux qui luttent pour leurs proches, souvent sans même connaître leur nom. Elle souligne la façon dont la vie continue malgré les défis et les souffrances, interrogeant le sens d'un tel dévouement face à l'indifférence du monde. Les jeunes générations passent et les luttes semblent parfois vaines, mais il reste toujours cette quête de sens, surtout devant le regard d'un enfant qui cherche des réponses. Le contexte peut évoquer des thématiques de guerre, de sacrifice et de relations familiales, où les promesses de protection et de soutien pèsent lourdement sur ceux qui sont prêts à donner leur vie pour une cause qui leur échappe. La chanson reflète ainsi une réalité humaine profonde, où chaque geste compte, même s'il peut sembler futile.
