My Old Haunts

The Dream Syndicate

Transposer:

  These streets are paved with stories   Of faded hopes and glories   No sleepless nights, no worries   Hey, baby, what's your hurry?   I'd like to get to know you   I've got some things to show you   Let's take a walk to my old haunts   These dreams are best forgotten   Passed on from ripe to rotten   Bewildered and besotten   Soaked up in balls of cotton   Oh do not ask what is it   Let's go and make our visit   Let's take a walk to my old haunts What do you do when you're credit's shot?   Skip town until it's not What do you do when you've passed your best? Put a cherry on top and bury it to rest   These eyes are never focused   On all the dreams that choke us   No tricks, no hocus-pocus   Cleared out by wasps and locusts   We're on the road to ruin   There's nothing better doin'   Let's take a walk to my old haunts Walk... What do you do when you're credit's shot?   Skip town until it's not What do you do when you've passed your best? Put a cherry on top and bury it to rest   These dreams are best forgotten   Passed on from ripe to rotten Bewildered and besotten   Soaked up in balls of cotten   Oh do not ask what is it   Let's go and make our visit   Let's take a walk to my old haunts   Let's take a walk to my old haunts   Let's take a walk to my old haunts

La chanson évoque des souvenirs ancrés dans des lieux familiers, chargés d'histoires et d'espoirs perdus. Le narrateur semble naviguer entre nostalgie et désillusion, se demandant comment avancer lorsque tout semble sombrer. Il propose une promenade vers ces anciennes destinations, cherchant à redécouvrir des moments oubliés, malgré une vie marquée par des échecs et des rêves décevants. L'absence d'inquiétude et l'envie de partager des instants de vie se mêlent à une reconnaissance que certains souvenirs sont mieux laissés de côté. C’est un appel à revisiter le passé tout en acceptant l’imperfection du présent.
