1a canzone al giorno

La canzone di oggi mi è stata ispirata/ricordata da un avviso letto ieri in una farmacia fiorentina. E' un cartello per i turisti con l'indicazione dello studio di un dottore che parla inglese. Il cartello avvisava che "The doctor is just around the corner". Mi sono messo a canticchiare subito una vecchia canzone dei Cock Robin degli anni ottanta. Fortunatamente su Youtube c'è il video e cosi la posso proporre. Tra l'altro non è niente male. Si riparte...

Just around the corner (Cock Robin)

Things aren't quite as they seem
inside my domain
You can't know about everything
only pleasure and pain.

You wonder why I come here
with head to my hands
Where else can I be cured
and the king of your mansion?
A thorn in your side
a child to protect
that claims he's free.

Just around the corner
half a mile to heaven
Strong enough to hold you
starved for some affection.
Darling come quickly
come ease my mind
For my prayers have not been answered in a long time.

I've already made my bed
like it or not
As long as there's no regrets
I'll be here when the ride stops.
These comforts to me
and these crosses to bare
with which we live.

Just around the corner
half a mile to heaven
Strong enough to hold you
starved for some affection.
Baby I can't drag you into this mess!

I'm the thorn in your side
and the child to protect.

Just around the corner
half a mile to heaven
Strong enough to hold you
starved for some affection.
Darling come quickly
come ease my mind
For my prayers have not been answered in a long time.

Just around the corner...
