Vanessa Carlton – A Thousand Miles

Vanessa Carlton

Un tempo suonavo il piano… l’ho studiato dai 7 ai 9 anni con la sorella della mia maestra elementare… era bravissima, mi faceva divertire ed era riuscita a farmi appassionare. Poi lei se n’è tornata a Trento, io ho cambiato maestro e il mio sogno è svanito… non era più un divertimento, tutti esercizi tecnici e nient’altro, e così ho smesso dopo pochi mesi.

Quando trovo canzoni, o più in generale pezzi musicali, come questo sono i momenti in cui rimpiango di più di non aver continuato a studiare… potermi mettere davanti ad una tastiera ed abbandonarmi alla musica…

Chissà, forse prima o poi riuscirò a farlo…

Making my way downtown
Walking fast
Faces passed
And I’m home bound

Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making my way
Through the crowd

And I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder….

If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
‘Cause you know I’d walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
Tonight

It’s always times like these
When I think of you
And I wonder
If you ever
Think of me

‘Cause everything’s so wrong
And I don’t belong
Living in your
Precious memories

‘Cause I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder….

If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
‘Cause you know I’d walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
Tonight

And I, I
Don’t want to let you know
I, I
Drown in your memory
I, I
Don’t want to let this go
I, I
Don’t….

Making my way downtown
Walking fast
Faces passed
And I’m home bound

Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making my way
Through the crowd

And I still need you
And I still miss you
And now I wonder….

If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass us by
‘Cause you know I’d walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you…

If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
‘Cause you know I’d walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
If I could
Just hold you
Tonight
