Damien Rice – The Greatest Bastard
Co tu dużo mówić. Za dwa dni płyta ma premierę w Irlandii, 3go listopada w Europie. Kolejna nowość tylko utwierdza mnie w przekonaniu, że będzie to album tego roku i muzyka, w której będę się zakopywać przez całą jesień i zimę. Słuchajcie magii.
I made you laugh, I made you cry,
I made you open up your eyes
Didn’t I?
I helped you open up your wings,
Your legs and many other things
Didn’t I?
Am I the greatest bastard that you know,
The only one who lets you go,
The one you hurt so much you cannot bear?
We were good when we were good,
When we were not misunderstood.
You helped me love, you helped me live
You helped me learn how to forgive,
Didn’t you?
Wish that I could say the same,
But when you left, you left the blame.
Didn’t you?
Am I the greatest bastard that you met,
The only one you can’t forget,
Am I the one your truth’s been waiting for?
Am I just dreaming once again?
Some dreams are better when they end…
Just woke in bed, you were in my head
I was underground and in a dream
Pass this place I’m not suppose to be,
And you were there waiting for me
And, with a smile, you said “It’s been awhile”
You asked have I had I seen her recently.
Am I the greatest bastard that you know?
When will we learn to let this go?
We fought so much we’ve broken all the chance!
Letting go is not the same
As pushing someone else away.
So please don’t let on you don’t know me!
Please don’t let on that I’m not here!
Please don’t let on you don’t love me,
‘Cause I know you do,
I know you do…
Somewhere…
