Happy

Tracy Chapman

Transposer:

Intro : Should be happy to be loved Happy to be Unburdened by the thought I could still be lonely I think you're the one Everyone agrees But some can see the face of love And turn away in disbelief Every time we get close I just run And the wind on my face last rays of the sun Shine on my skin my heart slow me down Is all that I can feel All that I can feel All that I can feel All that I can feel Should be happy to be loved Happy to be With someone who knows And understands me I think you're the one Everyone agrees But some can touch the hand of love And pull away in disbelief Every time we get close I just run And the wind on my face Last rays of the sun Shine on my skin My heart slow me down Is all that I can feel All that I can feel All that I can feel All that I can feel Should be happy to be loved Happy to be Possessed by nothing but A heart that's chosen freely I think you're the one Everyone agrees But some can feel the grace of love And walk away in disbelief Every time we get close I just run And the wind on my face Last rays of the sun Shine on my skin My heart slow me down Is all that I can feel All that I can feel All that I can feel All that I can feel All that I can feel All that I can feel All that I can feel All that I can feel Should be happy to be loved Happy to be Should be happy to be loved Happy to be

La chanson évoque les sentiments ambivalents de l’amour et de l’intimité. Elle reflète le contraste entre le bonheur potentiel d’être aimé et la peur de s’engager, de craindre d’être déçu. L’artiste souligne cette lutte intérieure : même si l’on devrait se réjouir d’une connexion authentique, il arrive souvent que l’on se replie sur soi-même face à cette vulnérabilité. Le contexte de la chanson parle de la complexité des relations humaines, où la peur du rejet peut empêcher d’avancer. Cela résonne particulièrement dans les moments où l’on réalise que l’on pourrait idéalement être heureux, mais que le doute et l’incertitude nous poussent à fuir. C'est une invitation à réfléchir sur notre propre capacité à accueillir l’amour et à oser la proximité avec l’autre.
