Your Memory Has a Mind of It's Own

Willie Nelson

Transposer:

Your memory has a mind of its own It knows where to go when it's gone  I think I've lost it but then it proves me wrong Your memory has a mind of its own  I can't tell it what to do I can smoke and I can drink until it's out of view  But I can't hold it off it's too strong And your memory has a mind of its own Your memory does what it wants to do It survives though I don't want it to   I do okay when I don't think of you But your memory does what it wants to do   If your memory had ears they'd be burnin'  If your memory had eyes they'd be cryin' And if it had a heart it would leave me alone But your memory has a mind of its own I can't tell it what to do I can smoke and I can drink until it's out of view  But I can't hold it off it's too strong And your memory has a mind of its own Your memory has a mind of its own

Du même artiste :

La chanson évoque la manière dont les souvenirs d'une personne aimée peuvent hanter l'esprit, malgré tous les efforts pour les ignorer ou les oublier. L'interprète décrit la lutte intérieure entre son désir de tourner la page et la force inéluctable de ces souvenirs qui resurgissent inopinément. Même en cherchant à échapper à cet emprise, il réalise que ses pensées et ses émotions lui échappent, faisant ressurgir une nostalgie persistante qui semble vivre sa propre vie. C'est une exploration sincère de la mémoire et de la douleur de la perte, où l'esprit se retrouve pris au piège de son propre passé.
