JUEVES - LYRICS ("The Look Of Love - ABC")

- The Look Of Love - ABC
 
When your world is full of strange arrangements
and gravity won't pull you through,
you know you're missing out on something.
Well that something depends on you.
 
All I'm saying, it takes a lot to love you.
All I'm doing, you know it's true.
All I mean now, there's one thing.
Yes, one thing that turns this grey sky to blue.
 
That's the look, that's the look.
The look of love. (x3)
 
When your girl has left you out on the pavement, (Goodbye)
then your dreams fall apart at the seams,
your reason for living's your reason for leaving.
Don't ask me what it means.
 
Who's got the look? I don't know the answer to that question.
Where's the look? If I knew I would tell you.
What's the look? Look for your information.
Yes, there's one thing, the one thing that still holds true.
(What's that?)
 
That's the look, that's the look.
The look of love. (x3)
 
The look of love. (x3)
 
If you judge a book by the cover
then you'd judge the look by the lover.
I hope you'll soon recover.
Me, I go from one extreme to another.
 
And all my friends just might ask me,
they say "Martin maybe one day you'll find true love".
I say "Maybe, there must be a solution
to the one thing, the one thing, we can't find".
 
(That's the look, that's the look)
Sisters and brothers
(That's the look, that's the look)
Should help each other
(That's the look, that's the look)
Heavens above
(That's the look, that's the look)
Hip hip hooray aye
(That's the look, that's the look)
Yippie aiy yippee yaye
(That's the look, that's the look)
Be lucky in love
Look of love
 
- Notas: La canción habla del fin de una relación, cuando es la otra persona la que te deja tirada ("your girl has left you out on the pavement") y muy tocado emocionalmente buscando rehacer su vida, y del momento en el que uno empieza a relacionarse de nuevo buscando quien será la siguiente persona con la que iniciará una relación personal.
El "look of love" del título es la capacidad de distinguir si alguien tiene el potencial de convertirse en esa nueva persona especial simplemente por el modo en el que nos mira.
- 1. “…pull you through…” = El phrasal "to pull through" se usa para indicar el reponerse, salir adelante o superar una situación difícil a nivel personal. En este caso es el superar la ruptura sentimental sufrida.
- 2. “…seams…” = Los "seams" son las costuras de una prenda de ropa, pero aquí viene en la expresión "to fall apart at the seams", que se usa para indicar el "venirse abajo" emocionalmente una persona, en este caso resultado de haber sido dejado por la pareja.
