Paroles de la chanson

I do my make up in somebody else's car

We order different drinks at the same bars

I know about what you did and I wanna scream the truth

She thinks you love the beach, you're such a damn liar

Those great whites, they have big teeth

Hope they bite you

Thought you said that you would always be in love

But you're not in love no more

Did it frighten you

How we kissed when we danced on the light up floor?

On the light up floor

But I hear sounds in my mind

Brand new sounds in my mind

But honey I'll be seein' you 'ever I go

But honey I'll be seein' you down every road

I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it

'Cause honey I'll come get my things, but I can't let go

I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it

Oh, I wish I could get my things and just let go

I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it

Sometimes I wake up in a different bedroom

I whisper things, the city sings 'em back to you

All those rumors, they have big teeth

Hope they bite you

Thought you said that you would always be in love

But you're not in love no more

Did it frighten you

How we kissed when we danced on the light up floor?

On the light up floor

But I hear sounds in my mind

Brand new sounds in my mind

But honey I'll be seein' you 'ever I go

But honey I'll be seein' you down every road

I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it

'Cause honey I'll come get my things, but I can't let go

I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it

Oh, honey I'll come get my things, but I can't let go

I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it

Yes, honey I'll come get my things, but I can't let go

I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it

Oh, I wish I could get my things and just let go

I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it

I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it

I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it

I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it

I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it

I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it

I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it

Explication des paroles de Green Light de Lorde

‘Green Light’ de Lorde est une chanson pop dynamique et énergique qui parle de la fin d’une relation amoureuse et de la recherche de liberté. Le thème principal est celui de la résilience et du fait de surmonter les obstacles pour aller de l’avant. Lorde a déclaré que la chanson était inspirée par une soirée où elle a vu son ex-petit ami danser avec une autre fille, ce qui l’a incitée à écrire cette chanson sur le désir de passer à autre chose. Malgré la tristesse de la situation, la chanson dégage un sentiment d’espoir et d’optimisme, symbolisé par le feu vert (green light) qui représente le début d’une nouvelle étape de sa vie.
