I Knew You Were Waiting For Me

Aretha Franklin

Transposer:

Intro:            Like a warrior that fights and wins the battle I know the taste of victory Though I went through some nights consumed by the shadows I was crippled emotionally Somehow I made it through the heartache Yes I did I escaped I found my way out of the darkness I kept my faith (I know you did) kept my faith When the river was deep I didn’t falter When the mountain was high I still believed When the valley was low it didn’t stop me no no                                          ?         I knew you were waiting I knew you were waiting for me With an endless desire I kept on searching Sure in time our eyes would meet Like the bridge is on fire The hurt is over one touch and you set me free I don’t regret a single moment no I don’t looking hack When I think of all those disappointments I just laugh (I know you do) I just laugh When the river was deep I didn’t falter When the mountain was high I still believed When the valley was low it didn’t stop me I knew you were waiting I knew you were waiting for me So we were drawn together through destiny I know this love we  shared was meant to be I knew you were waiting knew you were waiting                                          ?         I knew you were waiting knew you were waiting for me

Cette chanson exprime le parcours de quelqu'un qui a traversé des épreuves mais qui a su garder l'espoir et la foi en l'amour. Malgré les périodes sombres et les difficultés rencontrées, cette personne finira par retrouver la lumière grâce à un amour précieux, qu'elle ressentait depuis longtemps comme un destin partagé. Le message central tourne autour de la persévérance face à l’adversité et la certitude que, malgré les obstacles, l'amour véritable attend toujours. C'est un appel à ne jamais perdre de vue ce que l'on désire vraiment, même lorsque la vie est difficile. L'idée que deux âmes sont destinées à se retrouver ajoute une belle dimension de foi et de certitude à cette connexion.
