CLÁSSICOS PARA A VIDA ETERNA

YOUR SONG (1971) ELTON JOHN

Sérgio Luiz Gallina


It's a little bit funny this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money, but, boy, if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live
----
If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
I know it's not much, but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one's for you
----
And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple, but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
----
I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well, a few of the verses, well, they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
It's for people like you that keep it turned on
----
So excuse me forgetting, but these things I do
You see, I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen
----
And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple, but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
----
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

COVER DO SÁBADO

Your Song é uma canção composta por Elton John e Bernie Taupin, em 1967. Está no segundo álbum do cantor britânico, intitulado "Elton John", de 1970, e foi seu primeiro single nas paradas de sucesso.

A música foi composta em um tempo extremamente curto. Taupin (com 17 anos) escreveu a letra durante o café da manhã e Elton demorou 20 minutos para compor a música.


A música teve dezenas de regravações pelos mais diversos artistas, mas a mais curiosa talvez seja a do americano Billy Paul, de 1977, que fez grande sucesso no Brasil.
