Premessa... La canzone di oggi non è quella a cui ho fatto accenno nel post di ieri.... Tanto non avevo scritto quale era e me la tengo buona per un'altra occasione (domani?). La canzone che ho scelto è saltata fuori a sorpresa come un coniglio da un cilindro ieri pomeriggio. Stavo cercando tutt'altro ed è spuntato Billy Joel e così mi è venuta in mente una sua canzone che ha fatto da sigla ad una popolare soap degli anni ottanta, "Sentieri" (che credo abbia proseguito ben oltre il decennio e veniva da.... molto prima). La canzone si intitola "This is the time" ed è del 1986 tratta dall'album "The bridge". Secondo me è un bel pezzo.... anche per chi non apprezza l'inglese.... Buona domenica!This is the time (Billy Joel)We walked on the beach beside that old hotel They're tearing it down now But it's just as well I haven't shown you everything a man can do So stay with me baby I've got plans for you This is the time to remember Cause it will not last forever These are the days To hold on to Cause we won't Although we'll want to This is the time But time is gonna change You've given me the best of you And now I need the rest of you Did you know that before you came into my life It was some kind of miracle that I survived Some day we will both look back And have to laugh We lived through a lifetime And the aftermath This is the time to remember Cause it will not last forever These are the days To hold on to Cause we won't Although we want to This is the time But time is gonna change I know we've got to move somehow But I don't want to lose you know Sometimes it's so easy To let a day Slip on by Without even seeing each other at all But this is the time you'll turn back and so will I And those will be the days you can never recall And so we embrace again Behind the dunes This beach is cold On winter afternoons But holding you close is like holding the summer sun I'm warm from the memory of days to come This is the time to remember Cause it will not last forever These are the days To hold on to But we won't Although we'll want to This is the time But time is gonna change You've given me the best of you But now I need the rest of you
Il tempo di Billy
