Omaggi Musicali Ad Elvis Presley

[hurt]

Non so se sia vero, ma ho letto che Bono abbia definito questo suo brano come reazione e libera espressione della sua totale disapprovazione nei confronti di Albert Goldman, in merito alla biografia che scrisse su Elvis, dove il quadro che da di Elvis è quanto di più screditante ci possa essere.

U2 - Elvis Presley And America cover




Black flash over my own love tell me of my eyes
Black flash come though my own life
Telling these things and I believe them and I believe in you


White flash sees the sky and it turns its side from you
She won't turn my back and I know you turn so blue
And you know and your sky is feeling blue
And your heart so cold when I'm with you
And you feel like no one told you to
And your time is outside and your time
Ah, don't talk to me ah, don't talk to me don't talk to me

You know like no one told you how
But you know though the king that has howled
But you feel like sentimental
But you don't care if I just share it in your heart

Hopelessly, so hopelessly
I'm breaking through for you and me
And you don't though no one told you to
And you found out

Where you were going, where to you're through with me
But I know that you will be back for more
And you know and though no one told you so
And you know, blue sky like a harder shade of blue
And you walk when you want to let go
Me, I'm on the outside, tell me fade away
Drop me down but don't break me in your sleep

In your sleep, inside it's in your heart and mine
Whole sea is dark it's in your heart and mine
Sweetly, those will come loving is on your side walking through
So, let me in your heart your beat is like something

They run
See say you're sad and reach by
So say you're sad above beside
Oh stay sad above beside
So stay sad above we said

You know I don't no one told you how
And you wipe sweat off your white brow
And you care and no one told you tried
And your heart is left out from the side

And the rain beats down
And the shame goes down
And this rain keeps on coming down
And this sky tonight

You know S O N G, why
You're going go join to god
You know S O N G, why
Give away some him no lie
Give away some my de day no
You know and though no one told you sky
And you feel like you pretend you can
You say go, you live go live outside of me
Don't you leave don't leave out part of me
Then I can feel like I feel before like it hurt now
And I see the floor if you pick me up
