Roger Waters - The tide is turning

Tekst :

I used to think the world was flat
Rarely threw my hat into the crowd
I felt I had used up my quota of yearning
Used to look in on the children at night
In the glow of their Donald Duck light
And frighten myself with the thought of my little ones burning
But, oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
The tide is turning

Satellite buzzing through the endless night
Exclusive to moonshots and world title fights
Jesus Christ, imagine what it must be earning
Who is the strongest
Who is the best
Who holds the aces
The East
Or the West
This is the crap our children are learning
But oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
The tide is turning
Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning

Now the satellite s confused
Cause on Saturday night
The airwaves were full of compassion and light
And his silicon heart
Warmed to the sight of a billion candles burning
Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
The tide is turning Billy

I m not saying that the battle is won
But on Saturday night all those kids in the sun
Wrested technology s sword from the hand of the war lords
Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
The tide is turning Sylvester
Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning...

    Absent friends

    I remember the sun beating down
    Across my back
    The taste of olives and pleasures that
    You taught me
    And we broke bread and then we drank
    Cheap white wine
    Memories of happiness frozen for all time

    I hear you crying in my heart
    Absent friends shall live by love
    Remember places of my past
    Absent friends shall live by...

    Te necesito

    No digas que es tarde
    que mucho esperaste y ya no piensas volver
    dí que aún hay tiempo
    para recobrar lo que perdimos ayer
    porque yo nunca te olvidé.

    Te fuiste de pronto
    poniéndole fin sin previo aviso a este amor
    y...

    Trousse chemise

    Dans le petit bois de Trousse chemise
    Quand la mer est grise et qu on l est un peu
    Dans le petit bois de Trousse chemise
    On fait des bêtises souviens-toi nous deux
    On était partis pour Trousse chemise
    Guettés par les vieill s derrièr...

    One way street

    The stars and a moon
    Aren t where they re supposed to be
    For the strange electric light
    It falls so close to me
    Love, I come to ride
    High on that seasick rolling wave
    And you know that I am
    Just trying to get out
    Oh the glorious sound...

    Ci sei tu

    Ho provato a non amarti
    e impossibile per me
    chiedi tempo per pensarci
    ma perché
    ho provato a non cercarti
    ma so sempre dove sei
    e mi costa non chiamarti
    e tu lo sai
    dici che devi star sola
    se un dubbio c é
    che vuoi risolverlo da te
    e...
