Jolene...

Hace más de un año que no aparece por aquí uno de mis cantautores favoritos: Ray Lamontagne. Hace unos días vi la ultima película de Ben Affleck, The Town, en la que Ray tiene una canción en la banda Sonora. Jolene es la canción a la que me refiero... otra canción llena de sensibilidad; otra genialidad del hombre de New Jersey; otra canción para no olvidar...

¡Mañana habrá sorpresa ;-) !

Lyrics - Ray Lamontagne

Cocaine flame in my bloodstream
Sold my coat when I hit Spokane
Bought myself a hard pack of cigarettes in the early morning rain
Lately my hands they don't feel like mine
My eyes been stung with dust, I'm blind
Held you in my arms one time
Lost you just the same
Jolene

I ain't about to go straight
It's too late
I found myself face down in the ditch
Booze on my hair
Blood on my lips
A picture of you, holding a picture of me
in the pocket of my blue jeans

Still don't know what love means
Still don't know what love means
Jolene
Ah, La, La, La, La, La
Jolene

Been so long since I seen your face
or felt a part of this human race
I've been living out of this here suitcase for way too long
A man needs something he can hold onto
A nine pound hammer or a woman like you
Either one of them things will do
Jolene
I ain't about to go straight
It's too late
I found myself face down in the ditch
Booze in my hair
Blood on my lips
A picture of you, holding a picture of me
In the pocket of my blue jeans

Still don't know what love means
Still don't know what love means
Jolene
La, La, La, La, La, La, La
Jolene
La, La, La, La, La, La, La
Jolene
