Angeline Is Always Friday

The Seekers

Transposer:

Here’s a little number I like. Bruce Woodley plays the song either open (in the ’The Seekers at Home’) or on Capo 5 (during their 1968 Farewell Special) but I decided to write it open. [Intro] Clatter -- the milkman at my doorstep bustle -- my neighbour at her tea; In all the world no one’s so glad to see the sun as me [Verse] Angeline is always Friday Angeline is spring forever; Winter Angeline could never be Mister Wilson old and smiling lifts his cap as she is passing Bowing her politely on to me [Chorus] The week has gone its lonely way; I’ve waited for my only day Away from shadows In her sunlight I can tell her "I love yooouuu Angeline." [Verse] Angeline is always Friday suitcase on the rack above; She hasn’t even read her magazine Angeline is counting stations ’til the one where I am standing Waiting for my only Angeline [Interlude] [Chorus] The week has gone its lonely way; I’ve waited for my only day Away from shadows In her sunlight I can tell her "I love yooouuu Angeline." [Outro] Clatter -- the milkman at my doorstep bustle -- my neighbour at her tea; In all the world no one’s so glad to see the sun as me [End]

La chanson évoque un intense sentiment de joie et d'attente lié à une personne nommée Angeline, qui représente un jour particulier de bonheur au milieu de la routine quotidienne. Chaque semaine, ce personnage illumine la vie du narrateur comme un rayon de soleil, lui apportant une évasion bienvenue des ombres de la loneliness. La scène dépeint des moments simples de la vie – le laitier qui livre, les voisins qui prennent le thé –, mais tout cela semble prendre un sens plus profond en présence d'Angeline, symbolisant l'amour et l'espoir. Le contexte se prête à une image nostalgique d’un amour idéal, ancré dans les interactions quotidiennes. À travers les petites choses, il souligne comment l'arrivée d'Angeline transforme la monotonie en un moment précieux de connexion et de bonheur.
