Say what you want, Texas



El grupo Texas es originario de Glasgow, Escocia y se formó en 1986 gracias al empeño del bajista, Johnny McElhone. Su vocalista -y guitarra-, Sharleen Spiteri, le da el toque a unas canciones ya de por sí bellas y elegantes, pero acentuadas gracias a su cristalina y sensual voz.



Su discografía, que va desde 1989 a 2005, cuenta hasta ahora con siete trabajos, más el Greatest Hits recopilatorio que publicaron en el año 2000.


Say what you want es relativamente reciente y de sus canciones más conocidas. Pertenece al álbum White on blonde, de 1997.




Twenty seconds on the back time
I feel you're on the run
Never lived too long to make right
I see you're doing fine
And when I get that feeling
I can no longer slide
I can no longer run
Ah no no
And when I get that feeling
I can no longer hide
For it's no longer fun
Ah no no

Yeah, you can say what you want
But it won't change my mind
I feel the same
About you
And you can tell me your reasons
But it won't change my feelings
I feel the same
About you

What I am is what you want of me
Yeah, now that I'm not there
I took the tables away from you
It's turned and I don't care
And when I get that feeling
I can no longer slide
I can no longer run
Ah no no
And when I get that feeling
I can no longer hide
For it's no longer fun
Ah no no

Yeah, you can say what you want
But it won't change my mind
I feel the same
About you
And you can tell me your reasons
But it won't change my feelings
I feel the same
About you

I've said good night
Try to sleep tight
Ah just dream of me
Go close your eyes
Cause I've closed mine
The sun will shine from time to time
Oh, when you dream of me, yeah

Yeah, you can say what you want
But it won't change my mind
I feel the same
About you
And you can tell me your reasons
But it won't change my feelings
I feel the same
About you..

Acudo a mi cita con tu gramola y nuevamente descubro una canción muy apreciada por mí y que habré tarareado innumerables veces.
Es una voz preciosa la de esta escocesa ya universal. Fue bonito recordar otra vieja canción, otra antigua leyenda.
Besitos.
