Rolling Down the Hills
Embracing Life's Joyful Moments in Carly Simon's "Rolling Down the Hills
Lyrics
People who have bad times
People who experience difficulties in life
Write hard luck songs
Express their challenges through songs
But when their days are green
When things are going well for them
They think about love
They focus on thoughts of love
Sunshine, flowers in a garden
Reference to positive elements like sunshine and flowers
Did I bump you sir?
A polite inquiry about a possible accidental encounter
I'm beggin' your pardon
Apologizing for any unintentional contact
have you seen such a day?
Asking if the person has experienced such a beautiful day
Let's begin it by startin'
Suggesting to start the day positively
And rollin' down the hills with me.
Invitation to share joyful experiences, rolling down hills together
People who have short hair
People with short hair
Write short hair songs
Express their experiences through short hair songs
But when their hair gets long
When their hair grows long
They think about winding it around in daisy chains
They think about creating daisy chains with their hair
Waitin' for the showers
Waiting for rain to wash their long hair
Just to wash it in the rain
Emphasizing the beauty of long hair
Have you seen such hair?
Asking if anyone has seen such beautiful hair
Well let the wind play
Letting the wind play with their long hair
As you're rollin' down the hills with me
Enjoying the experience of rolling down hills together
People who have no hills
People without hills
Write songs about plains
Express their experiences through songs about plains
But if that's not what you want to do
Suggesting an alternative if plains aren't appealing
Well you can jump aboard a bus
Encouraging diverse modes of travel
Or boat or wooden canoe
Suggesting a specific mountain waiting to be explored
I know just the mountain
Expressing enthusiasm for writing songs about peaks
That's been waitin' for you
Indicating that a mountain is patiently waiting
Too write songs about the peaks
Suggesting to write songs about the peaks and scenic views
And the beautiful views
Enjoying the experience of rolling down hills together
As you're rollin' down the hills with me.
Continuation of the joyous invitation to share experiences
