1a canzone al giorno

Lontano da... Rod

Cercando su Youtube una novità per il post do oggi mi sono imbattuto in un video di Rod Stewart pubblicato il 19 dicembre 2019. Credevo fosse un nuovo singolo visto che anche Mollica qualche settimana fa gli ha dedicato un servizio al TG1. Tra l'altro non conoscevo la canzone.... E invece cercando il testo ho scoperto che è un brano del 1996 dall'album "If we fall in love tonight". Si intitola "So far away" e... Rod è sempre Rod... Poi chissà perchè ha pubblicato dopo 23 anni il video.... mah.... Buon ascolto e buona domenica!

So far away (Rod Stewart)

So far away
Doesn't anybody stay in one place any more?
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
And it doesn't help to know you're just time away
Long ago I reached for you and there you stood
Holding you again would only do me good
Oh how I wish I could but you're so far away

One more song about moving along the highway
I can't say much of anything that's new
But if I could only work this life out my way
I'd rather spend it being close to you

But you're so far away
Doesn't anybody stay in one place any more?
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
And it doesn't help to know you're so far away
So far away, yeah, you're so far away

Traveling around sure gets me down and lonely
Nothing else to do but close my mind
And I sure hope the road don't get to own me
There's so many dreams that I've yet to find

But you're so far away
Doesn't anybody stay in one place any more?
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
And it doesn't help to know you're so far away
So far away, yeah, you're so far away
