1a canzone al giorno

Rieccoci in diretta. Ieri rientro dall'Elba e la canzone di oggi arriva.... da lì.... Una sera mi sono visto con due amici / colleghi e rispettive famiglie a cena al Chioschetto di Norsi. Mentre mangiavamo passava in filodiffusione una playlist di canzoni anni ottanta e così è salatata fuori l'esistenza di quesato blog e la mia passione per le canzoni anno ottanta. Una di quelle passate che non conoscevo o meglio di cui non sapevo il titolo è questa "The lady in red" di Chris De Burgh dall'album "Into the light" uscito nel 1986. La canzone è dedicata alla moglie e al loro primo incontro al quale lei si presentò vestita di rosso. Buon ascolto e ben ritrovati!!

The lady in red (Chris De Burgh)

I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight,
I've never seen you shine so bright,
I've never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance,
They're looking for a little romance, given half a chance,
And I have never seen that dress you're wearing,
Or the highlights in your hair that catch your eyes,
I have been blind;

The lady in red is dancing with me, cheek to cheek,
There's nobody here, it's just you and me,
It's where I want to be,
But I hardly know this beauty by my side,
I'll never forget the way you look tonight;

I've never seen you looking so gorgeous as you did tonight,
I've never seen you shine so bright, you were amazing,
I've never seen so many people want to be there by your side,
And when you turned to me and smiled, it took my breath away,
And I have never had such a feeling,
Such a feeling of complete and utter love, as I do tonight;

The lady in red is dancing with me, cheek to cheek,
There's nobody here, it's just you and me,
It's where I want to be,
But I hardly know this beauty by my side,
I'll never forget the way you look tonight;

I never will forget the way you look tonight...
The lady in red, the lady in red,
The lady in red, my lady in red,

I love you...
