La cuenta atras

Y llegó el último día del año. Mañana un nuevo despertar con la ilusión de que lo que acontezca en nuestra vida sea mejor que lo que pasó en el año que dejamos atrás.

Poco a poco nos acercamos  a la medianoche que marca el fin y un principio.

Empezamos la cuenta atras...


Europe - The final countdown


We're leaving together
But still it's farewell
And maybe we'll come back
To Earth, who can tell?
I guess there is no one to blame
We're leaving ground -leaving ground-
Will things ever be the same again?

It's the final countdown
The final countdown

We're heading for Venus
And still we stand tall
Because maybe they've seen us
And welcome us all
With so many light years to go
And things to be found -to be found-
I'm sure that we'll all miss her so

It's the final countdown
The final countdown
The final countdown -the final countdown-

The final countdown
It's the final countdown
The final countdown

Los años de vida

Hay canciones que hace mucho que no escuchas y la tienes olvidada de tu cabeza, pero de repente te viene y te hace anima el día, pero también te hace reflexionar sobre los años de tu vida...



Mike & the Mechanics - The living years

Every generation
Blames the one before
And all of their frustrations
Come beating on your door

I know that I’m a prisoner
To all my father held so dear
I know that I’m a hostage
To all his hopes and fears
I just wish I could have told him
In the living years

Crumpled bits of paper
Filled with imperfect thought
Stilted conversations
I’m afraid that’s all we’ve got

You say you just don’t see it
He says it’s perfect sense
You just can’t get agreement
In this present tense
We all talk a different language
Talking in defense

Say it loud, say it clear
You can listen as well as you hear
It’s too late when we die
To admit we don’t see eye to eye

So we open up a quarrel
Between the present and the past
We only sacrifice the future
It’s the bitterness that lasts

So don’t yield to the fortunes
You sometimes see as fate
It may have a new perspective
On a different date
And if you don’t give up
And don’t give in
You may just be O.K.

Say it loud, say it clear
You can listen as well as you hear
It’s too late when we die
To admit we don’t see eye to eye

I wasn’t there that morning
When my father passed away
I didn’t get to tell him
All the things I had to say

I think I caught his spirit
Later that same year
I’m sure I heard his echo
In my baby’s new born tears
I just wish I could have told him
In the living years

Say it loud, say it clear
-Oh say it clear-
You can listen as well as you hear
It’s too late
-It’s too late-
When we die
-It’s too late when we die
To admit we don’t see eye to eye
So say it, say it, say it loud
-Say it loud-
Say it clear
-Come on say it clear-
