Gordon Lightfoot - Morning Glory CAPO: 4th Fret [INTRO:] / / / / [VERSE 1:] Pretty faces everywhere A few hard cases stop and stare They’ve got charm that is not right Pretty faces late at night [CHORUS:] Morning Glory what’s the story will it ever end I’ve been all the way to Biscayne Bay And all the way back again All the way back again [BRIDGE:] I remember our old rendezvous The key was kept inside a shoe Those moments will remain frozen in time Morning Glory’s on my mind [CHORUS:] What’s the story Morning Glory will it ever end I’ve been all the way to Biscayne Bay And all the way back again All the way back again [VERSE 2:] It seems like only yesterday She married me and carried me away I found out what life was all about Morning Glory threw me out [CHORUS:] Hey Morning Glory what’s the story will it ever end I’ve been all the way to Biscayne Bay And all the way back again All the way back again [CHORUS:] Alimony palimony puts a dent in me I’ve been all the way to Biscayne Bay For a dip in the shining sea Dip in the shining sea [VERSE 3:] Pretty faces everywhere A few hard cases stop and stare Even when I know it ain’t my day A lot of good faces anyway [CHORUS:] Morning Glory what’s that story what is it to be I’ve been all the way to Biscayne Bay For a dip in the shining sea Dip in the shining sea [CHORUS:] Morning Glory what’s the story will it ever end I’ve been all the way to Biscayne Bay And all the way back again All the way back again [CHORUS:] Hey Morning Glory what’s the story will it ever end I’ve been all the way to Biscayne Bay And all the way back again All the way back again

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque des souvenirs d’un amour perdu, mêlant la nostalgie et une quête de sens dans les relations. Le protagoniste se remémore des moments passés avec une femme qui lui a fait découvrir la vie d’une manière intense, mais qui l’a aussi laissé désemparé. On ressent un mélange de beauté et de désillusion, alors qu’il parle de visages séduisants qui l’entourent, mais qui ne comblent pas le vide laissé par cette expérience. Les allusions à des lieux comme Biscayne Bay renforcent l'idée d'une fuite, d'une recherche d'évasion face aux émotions difficiles qu'il traverse. La répétition de questions ouvertes laisse planer une incertitude sur l'avenir de ses sentiments et de sa vie.
