The man I love

 





Canción  de George e Ira Gershwin de 1924 para las comedias musicales Strike Up the Band y Lady, Be Good 

Traigo la versión al piano de Leon Fleisher, pero merece conocer la de Billie Holiday   o la mas moderna de Kate Bush


Letra

Someday he'll come along

The man I love

And he'll be big and strong

The man I love

And when he comes my way

I'll do my best to make him stay

He'll look at me and smile

I'll understand

And in a little while

He'll take my hand

And though it seems absurd

I know we both won't say a word

Maybe I shall meet him Sunday, maybe Monday, maybe not

Still, I'm sure to meet him one day

Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day

He'll build a little home

Just meant for two

From which I'll never roam

Who would, would you?

And so all else above

I'm waiting for the man I love

He'll build a little home

Just meant for two

From which I'll never roam

Who would, would you?

And so all else above

I'm waiting for the man I love

With God on our side

  Canción de Bob Dylan de 1963. Canción del egocentrismo y del dios a nuestra medida. "Jesús fue traicionado por un beso, pero no puedo pensar por ti Usted tendrá que decidir, si Judas Iscariote tenía a Dios de su lado (...) Si Dios está de nuestro lado, detendrá la próxima guerra". Letra Oh my name it ain't nothin' My age it means less The country I come from Is called the Midwest I was taught and brought up there The laws to abide And that land that I live in Has God on its side Oh, the history books tell it They tell it so well The cavalries charged The Indians fell The cavalries charged The Indians died Oh, the country was young With God on its side The Spanish-American War had its day And the Civil War, too Was soon laid away And the names of the heroes I was made to memorize With guns in their hands And God on their side The First World War, boys It came and it went The reason for fighting I never did get But I learned to accept it Accept it with pride For you d
