...TOUCH ME IN THE MORNING... by Diana Ross ------------.............. *from ’Touch Me in the Morning’ (1973)* *CAPO 1st FRET* (Original Key: C#) Chorus 1: Touch me in the mor  -ning  Then just walk a-way. We don’t have to-mor  -row    But we had yester-day.     Verse 1: Hey... wasn’t it me who said That nothing good’s gonna last for-ever?     And wasn’t it me who said Let’s just be glad for the time to-gether? Bridge 1: It must’ve been hard to tell me That you’ve given all you had to give. I can understand you’re feeling that way; Everybody’s got their life to live. Break: Well I can say goodbye in the cold morning light. But I can’t watch love die in the warmth of the night. If I’ve got to be strong Don’t you know I need to have to-night when you’re gone? ’Till you’re gone I need to lie here And think about the last time that you’ll...

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque les adieux doux-amers d'un couple qui sait que leur temps ensemble touche à sa fin. Le protagoniste semble conscient que les belles choses ne durent pas éternellement, et il se remémore les instants précieux partagés, tout en ressentant une profonde tristesse face à la séparation imminente. La mélodie accompagne ce mélange d'émotions, où l’on réalise que l’amour a laissé des souvenirs chaleureux, même dans l’acte de se dire au revoir. Dans ce contexte, l’interaction entre les souvenirs passés et la réalité présente rend l'instant encore plus poignant. Les protagonistes sont confrontés à la nécessité de laisser partir ceux qu’ils aiment, bien que cela soit difficile. C'est une réflexion sur l'amour, la perte et la manière de gérer des moments de vulnérabilité.
