Following the River

The Rolling Stones

Transposer:

There's something I should tell you why don't you sit there in that chair You're looking good today I love the way your comb's tucked in your hair My cards are on the table but the drinks have all run out There's been some other lads in this room with me we're really quite a crowd It's hard to break it gently but I really thought it through I don't think there's much future left for me and you Me and you I've been following the river til it joins hands with the sea. I've been thinking of you so bad cause you always saw the best in me You'll probably forget me and I'll fade back in the bar Just a face disappearing without trace I'll be lost I'll be lost One day I'll hear some laughter in a out-of-town café I'll be reaching for your number I'll be calling out your name Calling out your name I've been following the river til it joins hands with the sea. I've been thinking of you so bad cause you always saw the best in me

La chanson évoque les regrets d'une relation qui semble arriver à sa fin. Le protagoniste s'adresse à une personne chère, lui avouant que malgré l'affection qu'il éprouve, l'avenir ensemble semble incertain. Il fait le parallèle entre son cheminement personnel et une rivière qui finit par rejoindre la mer, symbolisant un voyage de réflexion sur son amour. Il ressent un mélange de nostalgie et de résignation, réalisant qu'il pourrait tomber dans l'oubli, comme un visage parmi tant d'autres, tout en gardant l'espoir qu'un jour, quelque chose le ramène à cette connexion.
