Intro : (x2) I was scared of dentists and the dark, I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations, Oh all my friends are turning green, You're the magicians assistant in their dreams. Ooh, ooh ooh Ooh, and they come unstuck Lady, running down to the riptide, taken away to the dark side, I wanna be your left hand man. I love you when you're singing that song and, I got a lump in my throat 'cause you're gonna sing the words wrong There's this movie that I think you'll like, this guy decides to quit his job and heads to New York City, this cowboy's running from himself.         And she's been living on the highest shelf Ooh, ooh ooh Ooh, and they come unstuck Lady, running down to the riptide, taken away to the dark side, I wanna be your left hand man. I love you when you're singing that song and, I got a lump in my throat 'cause you're gonna sing the words wrong I just wanna, I just wanna know, If you're gonna, if you're gonna stay, I just gotta, I just gotta know, I can't have it, I can't have it any other way   I swear she's destined for the screen, Closest thing to Michelle Pfeiffer that you've ever seen, oh Lady, running down to the riptide, taken away to the dark side, I wanna be your left hand man. I love you when you're singing that song and, I got a lump in my throat 'cause you're gonna sing the words wrong Lady, running down to the riptide, taken away to the dark side, I wanna be your left hand man. I love you when you're singing that song and, I got a lump in my throat 'cause you're gonna sing the words wrong Lady, running down to the riptide, taken away to the dark side, I wanna be your left hand man. I love you when you're singing that song and, I got a lump in my throat 'cause you're gonna sing the words wrong I got a lump in my throat 'cause you're gonna sing the words wrong.

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque des peurs et des hésitations face à l’inconnu, notamment celles d’un jeune homme face à ses sentiments pour une femme. On ressent une tension entre le désir de la connaître et la peur de mal faire, symbolisée par cette image d’un riptide, emportant l’un vers l’autre, mais aussi vers une zone d’ombre. Le narrateur semble fasciné par la personnalité unique de cette femme, qui incarne un idéal à la fois captivant et inaccessibile. Dans un cadre qui évoque des rêves et des aspirations, il fait référence à des images de films, renforçant l’idée que la vie peut parfois ressembler à une histoire romantique mais complexe. En somme, la chanson mélange l'émerveillement, l'incertitude et un brin d’humour, nous plongeant dans l'univers des rencontres et des émotions.
