Una visitante melancólica
"Como sopla el viento en las ventanas
como llueve hoy
como está la calle de vacía
como muere el sol
estos días grises del otoño,
me ponen triste
y al calor del fuego de mi hoguera
te recuerdo hoy..." - José Luis Perales
Esa canción encierra toda la melancolía que trae la lluvia, sea en otoño o en primavera, pero hay otras canciones muy chulámbricas también que tienen que ver con la lluvia. Se acuerdan ustedes de algunas?
Una canción que es un concentrado de melancolía pero en su versión de aguacero es "Rabo de Nube", de Silvio Rodríguez:
RABO DE NUBE
Si me dijeran pide un deseo,
preferiría un rabo de nube,
un torbellino en el suelo
y una gran ira que sube.
Un barredor de tristezas,
un aguacero en venganza
que cuando escampe parezca
nuestra esperanza.
Si me dijeran pide un deseo,
preferiría un rabo de nube,
que se llevara lo feo
y nos dejara el querube.
Un barredor de tristezas,
un aguacero en venganza
que cuando escampe parezca
nuestra esperanza.
Otra de mis favoritas que me encanta se llama "Crying in the rain" y es un clásico interpretado originalmente por The Everly Brothers, pero la versión que más me gusta es la del grupo noruego A-HA:
A-HA - CRYING IN THE RAIN
(Album EAST OF THE SUN WEST OF THE MOON)
I'll never let you see
The way my broken heart is hurting me
I've got my pride and I know I'll do hide
All my sorrow and pain
I'll do my crying in the rain
If I wait for stormy skies
You won't know the rain from the tears in my eyes
You'll never know that I still love you so
Though the heartaches remain
I'll do my crying in the rain
Raindrops falling from heaven
Could never take away my misery
But since we're not together
I pray for stormy weather
To hide these tears I hope you'll never see
Some day when my cryin's done
I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I may be a fool
But till then, darling, you'll, never see me complain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
(Break)
Whoo-ooo
Whoo-ooo
since we're not together
I pray for stormy weather
To hide these tears I hope you'll never see
Some day when my cryin's done
I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I may be a fool
But till then, darling, you'll, never see me complain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain x3

PURPLE RAIN
I never meant to cause you any sorrow,
I never meant to cause you any pain,
I only wanted to one time see you laughing,
Ionly wanted to see you laughing in the purple rain.
Purple rain, purple rain.
Purple rain, purple rain.
Purple rain,purple rain.
I only wanted to see you bathing in the purple rain.
I never wanted to be your weekend lover,
I only wanted to be some kind of friend,
Baby i coul never steal you from another,
It´s such a shame our friendship had to end.
Purple rain, purple rain.
Purple rain, purple rain.
Purple rain, purple rain.
I only wanted to see you underneath the purple rain.
Honey i know,i know, i know times are changing,
It´s time we all reach out for something new,
that´means you too.
You say you want a leader,
but you cant seem to make up your mind,
I think you better close it,
And let me guide you to the purple rain.
Purple Rain, purple rain,
Purple rain, purple rain.
If you know what i´m singing about up here,
come on rise your hand.
Purple rain,purple rain.
I only want to see you only want to see you
In the purple rain.
Chulisima la foto, cuando la vi de lejos pensé en una bandera.
Esas goticas de agua en el cristal me pusieron a pensar en las pocas y raras veces que me detengo a observar la lluvia.
Un abrazo
Oh, melancolía (Silvio Rodríguez)
Hoy viene a mí la damisela soledad,
con pamela, impertinentes y botón
de amapola en el oleaje de sus vuelos.
Hoy la voluble señorita es amistad,
y acaricia finalmente el corazón
con su más delgado pétalo de hielo.
Por eso hoy,
gentilmente, te convido a pasear
por el patio, hasta el florido pabellón
de aquel árbol que plantaron los abuelos.
Hoy el ensueño es como el musgo en el brocal,
dibujando los abismos de un amor
melancólico, sutil, pálido cielo.
Viene a mí, avanza
—viene tan despacio—,
viene en una danza
leve en el espacio.
Cedo, me hago lacio
y ya vuelo, ave.
Se mece la nave
lenta, como el tul
en la brisa suave
niña del azul.
Oh, melancolía, novia silenciosa,
íntima pareja del ayer.
Oh, melancolía, amante dichosa,
siempre me arrebata tu placer.
Oh, melancolía, señora del tiempo,
beso que retorna como el mar.
Oh, melancolía, rosa del aliento,
dime quién me puede amar.
No fue por casualidad que ganó el Arroba.

Sitting down by my window
Looking at the rain
Send a bomb in my world of night air
All around I felt it
All I could see was the rain
Something grabbed a hold of me honey
Felt to me, honey like a ball and chain
You know what I mean
Say whoah...honey, this can't be
Just because I got to want your love, please...leave me be
Whoah...honey, this can't be
Just because I got to need ya daddy
Please don't ya let me down now
Honey, I wanted to love ya
Whoah...honey, just can't be
I wonder if someone...if they could tell me
Tell me why
Just because I got to want your love
Honey, just because I got to need, need, need your love
I say, I don't understand
Honey, when I wanna try and say hi
Try, try, try, try, try, try, try...
Honey, when everybody in the world wants the same damn thing
When everybody in the world, who needs the same lone thing
When I wanna work for your love daddy
When I wanna try for you love daddy
I don't understand, how come, your gone, man
I don't understand why half the world is still crying, man
When the other half the world is still crying too, man
I mean, if you gotta care for one day, man
Say, maybe, you wanna care for 365 days, right?
You ain't got it for 365 days, man
You got it for one day, man
Well, I'll tell you that one day, man, better be your life, man
Because you know, you can say Oh Man,
you can cry about the other 364
But your gonna lose that one day, man
And that's all you got
You gotta call that love, man.
That's what it is.
If you got it today, you don't wear it tomorrow
Cause you don't need it
As a matter of fact, as we discovered on the train,
tomorrow never happens.
It's all the same f**king day, man.
So you gotta, when you wanna hold somebody
You gotta hold em like it's the last minute of your life
You gotta hold.........................
Holy...Cause some day some weight gonna come on your shoulders babe
Ball
and Chain.
BLACK-WHITE MAMA!!!
