Slip Slidin Away

Simon & Garfunkel

Transposer:

Slip sliding away slip sliding away You know the nearer your destination the more you slip sliding away Whoah and I know a man he came from my hometown He wore his passion for his woman like a thorny crown He said Dolores I live in fear My love for you's so overpowering I'm afraid that I will disappear Slip sliding away slip sliding away You know the nearer your destination the more you slip sliding away I know a woman (who) became a wife These are the very words she uses to describe her life She said a good day ain't got no rain She said a bad day is when I lie in the bed And I think of things that might have been Slip sliding away slip sliding away You know the nearer your destination the more you slip sliding away And I know a father who had a son He longed to tell him all the reasons for the things he'd done He came a long way just to explain He kissed his boy as he lay sleeping Then he turned around and he headed home again Slip sliding away slip sliding away You know the nearer your destination the more you slip sliding away Whoah God only knows God makes his plan The information's unavailable to the mortal man We're workin' our jobs collect our pay Believe we're gliding down the highway when in fact we're slip sliding away Slip sliding away slip sliding away You know the nearer your destination the more you slip sliding away (x2)

Cette chanson évoque le sentiment de perte et d'incertitude face aux choix de la vie. Elle parle de personnes qui, malgré leur désir de réaliser leurs rêves ou de se rapprocher de leurs proches, se sentent souvent distantes de leurs objectifs. Que ce soit un homme tiraillé par sa passion, une femme qui réfléchit à ses regrets, ou un père malheureux de ne pas avoir partagé son amour avec son fils, chacun fait face à des moments de désillusion. Au final, le message semble souligner l'idée que la vie est parfois imprévisible et que nous pouvons nous sentir glisser lentement hors de portée de ce que nous voulons vraiment, malgré tous nos efforts. C'est un rappel que nos plans peuvent être contrecarrés par des forces que nous ne comprenons pas pleinement.
