Song for Sagittarians

Shawn Phillips

Transposer:

Oh, archer with your bowstring tight Won't you let fly with your shaft of light Are you hunting your quarry now Are you leaving me babe, leaving anyhow But I will remember you when the rain pours down And I see you standing there in your bright blue gown Fyodor's there, still he doesn't care You're gone                      Tell me you don't want to travel To go back amidst the noise and babble But you hear me when I tell you that You know it won't be so long babe You know you're coming back And I'll wait right here till the sky is clear And I'll keep looking into that endless sphere And then you're gonna know There really wasn't nothing to fear                  So don't cry baby in the dark of night When you know I ain't there to hold you tight And I can't answer any of your questing glances Like when we woke up in the morning And we saw the dawn was storming And the clouds were there love Outside the window so fair And the sun came rising It was surprising Cast out all your dark surmising And then the car came You spoke my name And left me             But I'm not alone on this earth so fair There's something else beside me here Something keeps me ever looking forward And it's brighter than the sunlight And it's purer than the moonlight And it's drawing me toward it Like a moth out of the night And I know I'll arrive Where there ain't no time Non-dimensional plane of joy sublime Keep on being free Lord it's gotta be Infinity               Hey !

La chanson évoque la séparation et l'attente, où l'un des protagonistes encourage l'autre à ne pas craindre le voyage et à garder espoir. Elle parle des sentiments de solitude lorsqu'un être cher s'en va, tout en soulignant qu'il existe une lumière à l'horizon, une promesse de retrouvailles. Le narrateur exprime une compréhension profonde des émotions de l'autre, tout en affirmant sa propre force intérieure. Le contexte semble être celui d'une relation où l'un des partenaires doit partir pour une période indéterminée. Malgré cette distance, il y a une certitude que l'amour persistera et que des moments joyeux les attendent. L'ambiance mélancolique est contrebalancée par une vision d'une connexion éternelle et d'un avenir plein d'espoir.
