Travis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baby, you've been going so crazy
Lately, nothing seems to be going right
So low, why'd you have to get so low?
You're so
You've been waiting in the sun too long

But if you sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring won't mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing

Colder, crying over your shoulder
Hold her, and tell her everything's gonna be fine
Surely, you've been going too early
Hurry, 'cause no one's gonna be stopped
Now, now, now, now, now

But if you sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring won't mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing

Baby, there's something going on today
But I say nothing, nothing, nothing
Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing
So, now, now, now, now, now

But if you sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring won't mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
Ah, baby, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring won't mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Travis's song "Sing" convey a message of hope and encouragement during trying times. The song seems to be addressed to someone who has been going through a difficult period lately and has been feeling low. The first verse talks about how the person has been going crazy, with nothing seeming to go right. The singer encourages the person to sing, as if to suggest that singing could help lift their spirits. The chorus emphasizes this idea, repeating the line "But if you sing, sing, sing" several times. It suggests that when the person sings, they will be able to bring love into the world, which is something that won't happen if they keep their emotions bottled up.


The second verse continues with a similar message, encouraging the person to hold someone close and confide in them. It again emphasizes the idea that time is short and that the person needs to take action now. The repetition of the word "now" in the verse creates a sense of urgency.


Overall, the song is a powerful reminder that music has the power to heal and bring people together. It encourages listeners to find their voice and sing their emotions out loud, reminding us that doing so can be a powerful way to acknowledge our feelings and connect with each other.

"Sing" do Travis é uma canção intensa que fala sobre o poder da expressão e o combate à tristeza. Ela se divide em duas partes, cada uma com foco diferente:

Parte 1: Encorajando a libertação através do canto

A música começa com o eu lírico observando uma pessoa amada que está passando por um momento difícil. Ela está "enlouquecendo", se sentindo baixa e nada parece estar dando certo.

Ele a questiona por que se deixou chegar a esse ponto, pois ela é especial ("so").

A imagem de "esperar sob o sol por muito tempo" sugere um cansaço emocional.

O refrão central da música é um mantra repetido: "Se você cantar, cantar, cantar, cantar, cantar". É um convite insistente para se expressar, para "cantar" a dor, a frustração, mas também a esperança.

A frase "o amor que você traz não significará nada a menos que você cante" enfatiza a importância de não sufocar as emoções. O amor precisa ser vocalizado, compartilhado, para ter verdadeiro valor.

Parte 2: Reconhecendo a dor, mas insistindo na esperança

A segunda parte traz uma mudança sutil. O tom melancólico se mistura com uma pitada de urgência.

"Segure-a e diga que tudo vai ficar bem" mostra um lado carinhoso, de acolhimento.

"Você com certeza foi embora cedo demais" e "ninguém será impedido" sugerem uma necessidade de agir, de aproveitar o momento, de não desistir.

O refrão é repetido com ainda mais intensidade, como um grito de incentivo à libertação.

O final, com o repetido "baby, sing", é um apelo direto à amada para que encontre sua voz, sua expressão própria.

"Sing" é uma canção sobre resiliência. É sobre enfrentar a tristeza, a dúvida, mas nunca deixar de acreditar no poder da expressão. O título é a chave: ao "cantar", seja literal ou metaforicamente, a pessoa se liberta de seus pesos, conecta-se com suas emoções e, por fim, fortalece sua capacidade de amar e ser amada.

A repetição constante do refrão cria um ritmo hipnótico, reforçando a mensagem de libertação.

A ausência de uma melodia definida na segunda parte contribui para a sensação de urgência e incerteza.

A letra usa poucas metáforas diretas, deixando espaço para interpretações pessoais.

Espero que esta interpretação ajude a apreciar a profundidade e a beleza da música "Sing" do Travis.

Baby, you've been going so crazy
Lately, nothing seems to be going right
So low, why'd you have to get so low?
You're so
You've been waiting in the sun too long
But if you sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring won't mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing
Colder, crying over your shoulder
Hold her, and tell her everything's gonna be fine
Surely, you've been going too early
Hurry, 'cause no one's gonna be stopped
Now, now, now, now, now
But if you sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring won't mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
Baby, there's something going on today
But I say nothing, nothing, nothing
Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing
So, now, now, now, now, now
But if you sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring won't mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
Ah, baby, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring won't mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing

Baby, you've been going so crazy
Lately, nothing seems to be going right
Solo, why do you have to get so low
You're so
You've been waiting in the sun too long
But if you sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring won't mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing
Colder, crying on your shoulder
Hold her, and tell her everythings gonna be fine
Surely, you've been going to early
Hurry, 'cause no one's gonna be stopped
No, now, now, now, now if you sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring won't mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing
Baby, there's something going on today
But I say nothing, nothing, nothing
Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing
So, now, now, now, now, now if you sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring won't mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing
Ah baby sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring won't mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing

It was mid-June 2001, I was studying in the living room for my final school year with my Rottweiler (Roxy) beside me, I can't remember the channel I had on TV, but it was a music channel on (Maybe Channel V?). This song played as one of those "new releases", and I looked at Roxy and she was doing a teeny tiny head-bang. I know she was not head-banging intentionally, maybe just a breathing motion, but it looked so funny and it went to so well with the song.


From that day I started to associate Travis with my Roxy, I told all my friends that Roxy loves Travis, it is her favorite band :D I bought the "Invisible Band" Album from Virgin Megastore and I played this Album on my "Cd-man" when I took her for walks, or when we were just chilling inside the house.


Roxy passed away in Jan 2003, and I couldn't listen to Travis anymore :( but I am finally here, alone due to lockdown, and I wanted to remember Roxy, I decided to listen again, and here I am, smiling and happy and I can imagine her doing her tiny headbang like it was yesterday.


Rest in peace Roxy (26 Oct 1998 - 22 Jan 2003), you are greatly missed!
