A SONG FOR YOU, KAREN, Jeremy Monteiro



A SONG FOR YOU [Leon Russell]



I've been so many places in my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs I've made some bad rhyme
I've acted out my love in stages
With ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now and I'm singing this song for you

I know your image of me is what I hope to be
I've treated you unkindly but darlin' can't you see
There's no one more important to me
Darlin' can't you please see through me
Cause we're alone now and I'm singing this song for you

You taught me precious secrets of the truth witholding nothing
You came out in front and I was hiding
But now I'm so much better and if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody cause my love is in there hiding

I love you in a place where there's no space or time
I love you for in my life you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing this song for you

You taught me precious secrets of the truth witholding nothing
You came out in front and I was hiding
But now I'm so much better and if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody cause my love is in there hiding

I love you in a place where there's no space or time
I love you for in my life you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing this song for you
We were alone and I was singing this song for you


**********************************************************************************

Esta magnífica pieza de Leon Russell conoce muy buenas versiones.
En este tributo de Jeremy Monteiro la voz la pone la exótica Jacintha. Su empeño no consigue impedir que a su versión se le superponga, recogida aun de las más frágiles memorias, la voz de Karen Carpenter. No obstante, es fácil percibir el respeto y la devoción por nuestra admirada Karen. Donde digo nuestra pienso en vosotros, pero sobre todo en mí y en Carlos, a quien puedo y debo agradecer su constante afecto. La última muestra: dejar que mi puerta se convierta en una de sus ventanas.
Esta canción es por ti, es para ti.
