"Ten Days" meaning


Recommended Posts

Posted

Although "Ten Days" has to be one of my favorites, I can't for the life of me figure out the meaning! It just doesn't make sense to me. Can someone explain it to me please?

 

Heres the lyrics if needed:

At the doorway of my heart

All the leaves have fallen down

And though I try to pick them up

There's so many I think I'll drown

 

Ten days have come and gone

Ten days and I'm all alone

And all that I can do is

Pray and pray

Ten days I've seen the rain

Comin' down on a sunny day

But all I've got to do is

Pray and pray

And pray

 

At the doorway of my life

I feel the pain but feel no shame

And what I've got I keep inside

Some things have changed but I'm still the same

 

Ten days have come and gone

Ten days and I'm all alone

And all that I can do is

Pray and pray

Ten days I've seen the rain

Comin' down on a sunny day

But all I've got to do is

Pray and pray

(That's right)

And pray

 

And if you're goin' my way

Don't think that I'll bend

'Cause this is where I'll stay

I think it's the end

 

Ten days have come and gone

Ten days and I'm all alone

And all that I can do is

Pray and pray

Ten days I've seen the rain

Comin' down on a sunny day

But all I've got to do is

Pray and pray

 

Ten days have come and gone

Ten days and I'm all alone

And all that I can do is

Pray and pray

Ten days I've seen the rain

Comin' down on a sunny day

But all I've got to do is

Pray and pray

And pray

"Describes the wait of someone under dismal rain, having nothing else to do but pray, for ten days since their loved one left." That's from http://english.celine-dion.net/index.php :)

I think of it as a less dramatic version of Next Plain Out/ I want you to need me :shrug:

I don't get the song either, but I do think the title comes from the original French name, they sound alike.

Love this song! I stil remember being in my car driving with a friend who HATED celine and then when this song came on she LOVED it! :clap:
Posted

meaning: she decided she wanted the song at the last moment for the album was ready. She turned to Gerald de Palmas to write an english version, and he pretty much found whatever rhymes and put it with the melody...

 

 

 

sorry, one of my english favs but not a very deep and meaningful song

I always thought it meant it's been 10 days since someone left and she's waiting, having tough time trhough rain etc. or that he hasn't come yet but she thinks it will be soon.

Either way, she sings it well, very in to it, the album would have been odd without it and I am glad she does it. good topic!

There's quite a lot of rain in the album. In the title song "A New Day has Come", in "Ten Days", "Rain, Tax"

I think it's "Live in Bercy" '02

 

Yes, Tomber/ Ten days is a bonus track from the dvd Garou live a Bercy.

 

There is also Sous le vent in the concert and clip in the bonus, he sings le monde est stone and a galerie photo from them rehearsing sous le vent.

I loved her explanation on why she decided to record it, as she said she Looooooooved "Tomber" so René made the call and the rest was history for such a wonderful song. I love her attitude in it, a really "Taking Chances" song.
Posted
Didn't she have to convince Rene to put it on??? I can't recall?
