1a canzone al giorno

Le lezioni d'amore di Re Mark

Prima di tutto buona domenica a tutti. E speriamo che sia anche una bellissima domenica di sport (capito Lucarelli & C.?). La canzone del giorno è un grande successo degli anni Ottanta di un  gruppo che dopo un po' è sparito completamente. Loro sono i Level 42 e la canzone è "Lessons in love". Il leader dei Level è Mark King, basso e voce, a quel tempo considerato tra i migliori del mondo. Mark, che fine hai fatto? I Level 42 furono anche il primo concerto che vidi da solo con i miei amici al Palasport di Firenze. Avevo quasi 15 anni.

Lessons in love (Level 42)

Im not proud, I was wrong
And the truth is hard to take
I felt sure we had enough
But our love went overboard
Lifeboat lies lost at sea
Ive been trying to reach your shore
Waves of doubt keep drowning me

All the dreams that we were building
We never fulfilled them
Could be better, should be better
For lessons in love

For restless eyes egos burn
And the mold is hard to break
Now weve waded in too deep
And love is overboard
Heavy hearts token words
All the hopes I ever had
Fade like footprints in the sand

All the homes that we were building
We never lived in
Could be better, should be better
Lessons in love
If we lose the time before us
The future will ignore us
We should use it, we could use it, yeah
Lessons in love
Lost without love

Lessons in love
When will you ever learn
Lessons in love
When theres nowhere left to turn
Lessons in love
Dont let your spirit burn
Lessons in love
Ill wait till you return

All the dreams that we were building
We never lived them
We could lose it, we should use it
(lessons in love) lessons in love
All the homes that we were building
We never lived in
Could be better (could be better), should be better
Lessons in love
If we lose the time before us
The future will ignore us
We should use it, we could use it (good God)
Lessons in love
