[Verse 1] Staring in the window of the shop that never opens    Planning my selection from all the treats inside      Should I take as I desire - oh shall I oh shall I?   Or should I hang around to be enticed inside?       [Chorus] I’m trying to explain to myself I can have both I’m trying to explain to the voice inside I can have both I can have both              There’s nobody around to say no Who’ve brain-washed the small shy boy inside He doesn’t know he can have both      [Verse 2] Smiling through the window to the one who never serves you     I’ve not been feeling myself tonight     Should I take as I feel like it - well shall I oh shall I?      Or should I wait and hope to be dragged inside? oh... [Chorus] I’m trying to explain to myself I can have both I’m trying to explain to the voice inside I can have both I can have both              There’s nobody around to say no Who’ve brain-washed the small shy boy inside He doesn’t know he can have both                                                                                                                                                               [Outro] I can have both    There’s no need to choose Because I can have both    There’s no need to choose I can have both   There’s no need to choose Because I can have both   There’s no need to choose I can have both    There’s no need to choose...

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque la lutte intérieure d'une personne qui souhaite prendre ce qu'elle désire sans se sentir coupable. Elle se trouve devant une vitrine, attirée par des choix, mais elle hésite, se demandant si elle doit se laisser aller ou rester passive. Au fil des paroles, on comprend que cet individu essaye de convaincre son moi intérieur qu'il a le droit d'avoir à la fois la liberté de choisir et de s'épanouir. Le contexte semble parler d'une quête personnelle, celle de ne pas se limiter, de comprendre qu'il n'est pas nécessaire de choisir entre deux désirs ou aspirations. Cela souligne souvent notre propre hésitation à nous affirmer face aux peurs ou aux doutes qui peuvent nous retenir.
