Jueves Trovero: Till it happens to you

Un jueves trovero más. Y hoy, con una novedad. Porque hasta hoy no te había regalado ningún tema de Corine Bailey Rae. No había llegado el momento, o no había pensado en ella hasta ahora; o no sé.

En cualquier caso, hoy te traigo su canción Til it happens to you. La voz de Corine es dulce, y la melodía de esta canción es envolvente al máximo. La letra es triste, sí; pero es una preciosidad. A fin de cuentas, por más triste que sea, es verdad que no puedes decir lo que el amor puede hacer… hasta que te pasa a ti… Y es que hay cosas que solo se aprenden por experiencia propia, ¿verdad?

Till it happens to you

(Corinne Bailey Rae)

I know what I said
Was heat of the moment
But theres a little truth in between the words we’ve spoken
Its a little late now to fix the heart thats broken
Please don’t ask me where I’m going
Cause I don’t know
No I don’t know anymore

It used to feel like heaven
Used to feel like may
I used to hear those violins playing heart strings like a symphony
Now they’ve gone away
Nobody wants to face the truth
But you wont believe what love can do
Till it happens to you
Till it happens to you

Went to the old flat
Guess I was trying to turn the clock back
How come that nothing feels the same now when I’m with you
We used to stay up all night in the kitchen
When our love was new
Oooh love I’m a fool to believe in you
Cause I don’t know
No I don’t know
Anymore

It used to feel like heaven
It used to feel like may
I used to hear those violins playing heart strings like a symphony
Now they’ve gone away
Nobody wants to know the truth
Until their hearts broken
Don’t you dare tell them
What you think to do
Till they get over
You can only learn these things
From experience
When you get older
I just wish that someone would have told me
Till it happens to you
Till it happens to you
Till it happens to you
