JUEVES - LYRICS ("Say You, Say Me - Lionel Richie")

- Say You, Say Me - Lionel Richie
 
Say "you", say "me",
say it for always. That's the way it should be.
Say "you", say "me",
say it together, naturally.
 
I had a dream,
I had an awesome dream:
People in the park
playing games in the dark.
And what they played
was a masquerade.
From behind the walls of doubt
a voice was crying out.
 
Say "you", say "me",
say it for always. That's the way it should be.
Say "you", say "me",
say it together, naturally.
 
As we go down
life's lonesome highway.
Seems the hardest thing to do
is to find a friend or two.
That helping hand,
someone who understands
that when you feel you lost your way
you've got someone there to say.
I'll show you.
 
Say "you", say "me",
say it for always. That's the way it should be.
Say "you", say "me",
say it together, naturally.
 
So, you think you know the answers.
Oh, no.
Well, the whole world's got you dancing.
That's right. I'm telling you.
It's time to start believing.
Oh, yes.
Believing who you are,
you are a shining star.
 
Say "you", say "me",
say it for always. That's the way it should be.
Say "you", say "me",
say it together, naturally.
 
Say it together, naturally.
 
- Notas: Lionel Richie recibió el encargo de hacer la canción principal para la banda sonora de la película "White Nights", que trata sobre dos bailarines que se fugan de su respectivo bloque durante la Guerra Fría que acaban coincidiendo en Rusia y planean una nueva fuga. La canción trata sobre la amistad y la soledad.
- 1. “…masquerade…” = Se usa para hablar de los bailes de máscaras, pero en sentido metafórico, como en este caso, se usa para indicar que una situación es una farsa y que la realidad es muy distinta a como veíamos las cosas.
- 2. “…lonesome…” = Es un adjetivo propio del inglés americano para indicar que alguien es solitario, pero de un modo triste, no por soledad elegida, sino por soledad forzada al no tener nadie con quien contar o en quien poder confiar.
