Versi presi da: MAPS dei Maroon 5
"Abbiamo disegnato una mappa per un posto migliore
Ma lungo quella strada sono caduto
Oh baby perché sei scappata via?Ero lì per te
Nei momenti più bui
Ero lì per te
Nelle tue notti più buieMa mi chiedo dove fossi
Quando ero al mio peggio
In ginocchio
E saresti stata dietro di me
Allora mi chiedo dove eri
Tutte le strade che hai preso ti hanno riportata da me
Così sto seguendo la mappa che conduce a te
La mappa che conduce a te
Non c'è niente che possa fare
La mappa che conduce a te
Seguendo, seguendo, seguendo te
La mappa che conduce a te
Non è niente che possa fare
La mappa che conduce a te
Seguendo, seguendo, seguendo te."
Vorrei parlarvi delle parti che ho evidenziato in grassetto.
Se voi vedeste il video,
(quello che vi ho messo sopra e che metterò qua sotto insieme al testo completo)
si vede che lui in una festa bacia una ragazza ma non si accorge che è sorvegliato dalla fidanzata, che poi corre via, lui cerca di fermarla ma lei oppone resistenza, va in strada e viene investita da una macchina e muore in ospedale.
Dico questo perché in questa canzone "lui" chiede perché lei stia scappando visto che è stato tutta la vita fedele a lei e questo (il bacio con la sconosciuta) è solo "una buca che l'ha fatto cadere").
Praticamente "lui" le sta chiedendo perché dopo che ha baciato un'altra, la sua fidanzata se ne vuole andare.
Quindi la canzone in sé è bella, ma se poi pensiamo che per questa "caduta" intende il tradimento allora penso che questa canzone non sia così bella.
I miss the taste of a sweeter life
I miss the conversation
I'm searching for a song tonight
I'm changing all of the stations
I like to think that we had it all
We drew a map to a better place
But on that road I took a fall
Oh baby why did you run away?I was there for you
In your darkest times
I was there for you
In your darkest nights
But I wonder where were you?
When I was at my worst
Down on my knees
And you said you had my backSo I wonder where were you?
When all the roads you took came back to me
So I'm following the map that leads to you
Ain't nothing I can do
The map that leads to you
Following, following, following to you
Ain't nothing I can do
The map that leads to you
Following, following, followingI hear your voice in my sleep at night
Hard to resist temptation
Cause all these strangers come over me
Now I can't get over you
No, I just can't get over youI was there for you
In your darkest times
I was there for you
In your darkest nightsBut I wonder where were you
When I was at my worst
Down on my knees
And you said you had my back
So I wonder where were you
All the roads you took came back to me
So I'm following the map that leads to you
The map that leads to you
Ain't nothing I can do
The map that leads to you
Following, following, following to you
The map that leads to you
And nothing I can doTu bien sabes que yo te ando buscando
Aunque en el tiempo aun yo te sigo amando
Tengo un mapa de papel
Y camino sobre él
Donde estés llegaré y
No tienes chance para escaparteTe sigo buscando por cielo y tierra
Razón de ti nadie me da
Pa' toda mi piel ya no hay mapa
Que me conduciráEsto parece ficción
Hasta en la televisión
Como entender la canción que estoy haciendo
Para encontrarteY yo fui quien te acompaño en la oscuridad
Quien nunca fallo. EhhhBut I wonder where were you?
When I was at my worst
Down on my knees
And you said you had my back
So I wonder where were you?
When all the roads you took came back to me
So I'm following the map that leads to you
Ain't nothing I can doThe map that leads to you
Following, following, following to you
Ain't nothing I can do
The map that leads to you
Eh eh eh
Oh oh oh
Yeah yeah yeah
Oh oh ohOh, I was there for you
Oh, in your darkest time
Oh, I was there for you
Oh, in your darkest nights
Oh, I was there for you
Oh, in your darkest time
Oh, I was there for you
Oh, in your darkest nightsBut I wonder where were you?
When I was at my worst
Down on my knees
And you said you had my back
So I wonder where were you?
When all the roads you took came back to me
So I'm following the map that leads to you
Ain't nothing I can doThe map that leads to you
Following, following, following to you
Ain't nothing I can do
The map that leads to you
Following, following, following
