CLÁSSICOS PARA A VIDA ETERNA

THE YEAR OF THE CAT (1976) AL STEWART

Sérgio Luiz Gallina

Produzido por Alan Parsons e lançado em 1976, 
Year of the Cat é o sétimo disco do compositor britânico 
Al Stewart (5/9/1945). 
Sucesso de vendas e execução, 
o álbum lhe rendeu um disco de platina

In a country where they turn back time

You go strolling through the crowd like Peter Lorre
Contemplating a crime
----
She comes out of the sun in a silk dress running
Like a watercolour in the rain
Don't bother asking for explanations
She'll just tell you that she came
In the year of the cat
----
She doesn't give you time for questions
As she locks up your arm in hers
And you follow 'till your sense of which direction
Completely disappears
----
By the blue tiled walls near the market stalls
There's a hidden door she leads you to
These days, she says, I feel my life
Just like a river running through
The year of the cat
----
She looks at you so cooly
And her eyes shine like the moon in the sea
She comes in incense and patchouli
So you take her, to find what's waiting inside
The year of the cat
----
Well, morning comes and you're still with her
And the bus and the tourists are gone
And you've thrown away the choice and lost your ticket
So you have to stay on
But the drum-beat strains of the night remain
In the rhythm of the new-born day
You know sometimes you're bound to loose her
But for now you're going to stay
In the year of the cat
