forever and always…

The time is here again
Prepare to be apart
And it drives you crazy
Each time I go away

The distance gets longer
But it makes us stronger


Should it all come crashing
Down around me
Would you be there
Should I stumble and fall
Pick up the pieces

Wo-ho-oh
Forget about the shit that we’ve been through


I wanna stay here forever and always

Wo-ho-oh
Standing here in front of all of you

I wanna stay here forever and always

These days are dead again
It’s empty from the start
And it drives me crazy
The hours drift away
It hurts to remember
This will soon be over

Should it all come crashing
Down around me
Would you be there
Should I stumble and fall
Pick up the pieces

Wo-ho-oh
Forget about the shit that we’ve been through

I wanna stay here forever and always

Wo-ho-oh
Standing here in front of all of you

I wanna stay here forever and always

Forever and always

Wo-ho-oh
Wo-ho-oh

Forever and always


Canzone della settimana: Wasting Love – Iron Maiden

Iron Maiden – Wasting Love

Maybe one day I’ll be an honest man
Up till now I’m doing the best I can
Long roads, long days, of sunrise, to sunset
Sunrise to sunset

Dream on brother, while you can
Dream on sister, I hope you find the one
All of our lives, covered up quickly
by the tides of time

Spend your days full of emptiness
Spend your years full of loneliness
Wasting love, in a desperate caress
Rolling shadows of nights

Dream on brother, while you can
Dream on sister, I hope you find the one
All of our lives, covered up quickly
by the tides of time

Sands are flowing and the lines
are in your hand
In your eyes I see the hunger, and the
desperate cry that tears the night

Forse l’unica vera e propria ballad fatta dagli Iron Maiden, gruppo capostipite dell’heavy metal (pionieri della New Wave of British Heavy Metal degli anni ’70/’80)… Canzone semplicemente fantastica, con la voce sopra le righe di Bruce Dickinson a farne da padrona. Ritmo lento, un pò triste; testo (come tutti i testi degli Iron Maiden) denso di significato, che divaga un pò dai classici versi che caratterizzano lo stile dei Maiden. Canzone che mi mette i brividi… Godetevi il video di quello che io amo definire MUSICA!

…in your eyes i see the hunger, and the desperate cry that tears the night…

Canzone delle settimana: Children of the Sea – Black Sabbath

Black Sabbath – Children of the Sea

In the misty morning, on the edge of time
We’ve lost the rising sun, a final sign
As the misty morning rolls away to die
Reaching for the stars, we blind the sky

We sailed across the air before we learned to fly
We thought that it could never end
We’d glide above the ground before we learned to run, run
Now it seems our world has come undone

Oh they say that it’s over
And it just had to be
Ooh they say that it’s over
We’re lost children of the sea, oh

We made the mountains shake with laughter as we played
Hiding in our corner of the world
Then we did the demon dance and rushed to nevermore
Threw away the key and locked the door

Oh they say that it’s over, yeah
And it just had to be
Yes they say that it’s over
We’re lost children of the sea

In the misty morning, on the edge of time
We’ve lost the rising sun, a final sign
As the misty morning rolls away to die
Reaching for the stars, we blind the sky

Oh they say that it’s over, yeah
And it just had to be
Oh they say that it’s over
Poor lost children of the sea, yeah

LOOK OUT! The sky is falling down!
LOOK OUT! The world is spinning round and round and round!
LOOK OUT! The sun is going black, black
LOOK OUT! It’s never never never coming back, LOOK OUT!

Ripercorrendo negli ultimi giorni la storia dell’ heavy metal mi sono imbattuto in questa splendida canzone dei Black Sabbath con Ronnie James Dio alla voce… che dire, i Black Sabbath sono l’heavy metal, lo hanno praticamente inventato loro… e questa canzone è la prova delle grandissime doti vocali di Ronnie James Dio… Godetevi questa fantastica canzone!
