Spancil Hill

The Corrs

Transposer:

Intro: (x2) Last night as I lay dreamingof pleasant days gone by My mind being bent on ramblingto Ireland I did fly I stepped on board a vision and followed with a wind Till the next I came to anchor at the cross near Spancil Hill (x2) T’was on the twenty third of Junethe day before the fair When Ireland’s sons and daughtersand friends assembled there The young the old the brave the bo came their duty to fill At the parish Church at Clooneya mile from Spancil Hill. (x2) I went to see me neighbours to hear what they might say The old one’s were all dead and gonethe young one’s turning grey I met the tailor Quigleyhe’s as bold as ever still Sure he used to mend my britches when I lived in Spancil Hill. (x2) I paid a flying visit to my first and only love She’s fair as any lilly as gentle as a dove She threw her arms around me saying "Johnny I love you still" She was Meg the farmer’s daughterthe pride of Spancil Hill. She was Meg the farmer’s daughterthe pride of Spancil Hill.

La chanson évoque le rêve nostalgique d'un homme qui se remémore son passé en Irlande, en particulier le village de Spancil Hill. Dans son rêve, il retrouve des souvenirs d'amis et de proches, confronté à la réalité du temps qui passe. Il se souvient des jours de fête, des retrouvailles avec ses voisins et, surtout, de son premier amour, Meg, la fille du fermier, qui reste toujours dans son cœur. Ce voyage imaginaire est teinté de mélancolie, soulignant à quel point les souvenirs et les liens affectifs demeurent précieux malgré l'éloignement et le changement.
