You know I need your love
You've got that hold over me
Long as I've got your love
You know that I'll never leave
When I wanted you to share my life
I had no doubt in my mind
And it's been you, woman
Right down the line
I know how much I lean on you
Only you can see
The changes that I've been through
Have left a mark on me
You've been as constant as a Northern Star
The brightest light that shines
It's been you, woman
Right down the line
I just want to say this is my way
Of tellin' you everything
I could never say before
Yeah, this is my way of tellin' you
That every day I'm lovin' you so much more
'Cause you believed in me through my darkest night
Put somethin' better inside of me
You brought me into the light
Threw away all those crazy dreams
I put them all behind
And it was you, woman
Right down the line
I just want to say this is my way
Of tellin' you everything
I could never say before
Yeah, this is my way of tellin' you
That every day I'm lovin' you so much more
If I should doubt myself
If I'm losing ground
I won't turn to someone else
They'd only let me down
When I wanted you to share my life
I had no doubt in my mind
And it's been you, woman
Right down the line
Uma Ode à Parceira Inabalável: Analisando Right Down The Line de Gerry Rafferty
A música Right Down The Line, composta e interpretada pelo cantor escocês Gerry Rafferty, é uma expressão sincera de amor e gratidão a uma parceira constante e fiel. A letra da canção reflete um sentimento profundo de apreço pela pessoa amada, que se manteve ao lado do narrador ao longo de sua jornada, sendo uma fonte de apoio e inspiração inabalável. A música, lançada em 1978, faz parte do álbum 'City to City' e é um dos maiores sucessos de Rafferty, conhecido por sua habilidade em mesclar elementos do rock, pop e folk em suas composições.
O refrão da música destaca a importância da parceira na vida do narrador, mencionando que ela foi como uma 'estrela do norte', uma metáfora para algo que guia e orienta de forma confiável. A canção também aborda a transformação pessoal do narrador, que atribui à influência positiva de sua companheira, sugerindo que ela o ajudou a abandonar 'sonhos loucos' e a encontrar um caminho mais iluminado e verdadeiro. A repetição da frase 'right down the line' enfatiza a consistência e a presença contínua dessa mulher em sua vida, sugerindo uma parceria duradoura e sem falhas.
A música também serve como uma declaração de compromisso e fidelidade. O narrador expressa que, mesmo nos momentos de dúvida ou dificuldade, ele não procuraria apoio em outra pessoa, reforçando a confiança e a exclusividade de seu relacionamento. A canção se torna um veículo para expressar sentimentos que, talvez, não tenham sido ditos antes, e é uma celebração do amor que cresce e se fortalece com o tempo. Right Down The Line é um testemunho do poder do amor e da confiança em um relacionamento, e uma lembrança de que o apoio mútuo é a chave para superar as adversidades e encontrar a luz nos momentos mais sombrios.
