With or without you - U2

Mio marito è un grandissimo fan degli U2. Quando lo conobbi, infatti, si faceva chiamare "Vox", in onore del suo paladino.

Io, per il puro gusto di contraddirlo, gli dico spesso che detesto Bono e le sue canzoni, ma non è la verità.

In particolare adoro "With or without you", il primo estratto dal quinto album in studio "The Joshua Tree" e pubblicato il 16 marzo 1987, guarda caso proprio l'anno della mia nascita.

Quindi, ascoltiamola insieme, guardandone il video e cantiamola scorrendo il testo che vi riporto di seguito.

With or without you - U2

See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side
I'll wait for you
Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait, without you

With or without you
With or without you

Through the storm we reach the shore
You give it all but I want more
And I'm waiting for you

With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away

My hands are tied
My body bruised, she's got me with
Nothing to win and
Nothing left to lose

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away

With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you
Oh
With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you
With or without you
