JUEVES - LYRICS ("Black Is Black – Los Bravos")

- Black Is Black – Los Bravos
 
Black is black, I want my baby back.
It's grey, it's grey, since she went away, oh oh.
What can I do? 'Cause I, I'm feelin' blue.
 
If I had my way, she'd be here today,
but she'd go in time, and leave me to cry again, oh no.
What can I do? 'Cause I, I'm feelin' blue.
 
I can't choose, it's too much to lose when our love's too strong,
maybe if she would come back to me, then I can't go wrong.
 
Bad is bad, that I feel so sad.
It's time, it's time, that I felt peace of mind, oh oh.
What can I do? 'Cause I, I'm feelin' blue.
 
I can't choose, it's too much to lose when our love's too strong,
maybe if she would come back to me, then I can't go wrong.
 
Black is black, I want my baby back.
It's grey, it's grey, since she went away, oh oh.
What can I do? 'Cause I, I'm feelin' blue.
 
'Cause I, I'm feelin' blue, 'cause I, I'm feelin' blue.
 
- Notas: Es una canción de amor que intenta expresar la tormenta de ideas y emociones que pasan por la mente del cantante, el amante rechazado. El protagonista de la canción se siente mal por haber sido rechazado, y en su mente alterna entre intentar convencerse de que eso es lo mejor porque más pronto o más tarde le volvería a dejar, prolongando su agonía, y pensar que quizás en el caso de darle una oportunidad la cosa podría llegar a funcionar.
- 1. “…feelin' blue…” = El “blue” es el color que se asocia a sentirse triste o melancólico, de ahí que el “Monday blues” es la depresión del lunes, y el “post-holidays blues” la depresión postvacacional.
- 2. “…had my way…” = Cuando uno tiene las cosas a su modo (“to have (things) + pronombre + way”) las cosas salen “a su manera” o del modo que esa persona quiere que salgan.
