La cançó de la setmana (II): Because the night

Les velles rockeres mai no moren... En un món de tios, la Patti Smith ha estat una rara avis, un genet salvatge i solitari. Amb tant d'alcohol i drogues al damunt com la Janes Joplin, almenys va saber navegar i guardar la roba en aquesta perillos riba de l'autodestrucció. Encara canta, i com que en aquesta nit ve de gust escoltar-la, ho vull compartir amb vosaltres. No és el Bruce, és clar, però també he somiat

Perquè és de nit. I sentim la nit. Perquè la nit és com un àngel disfressat de desig. Vine. Aquí, en el nostre llit, esperant que arribi el nou dia. Acosta't. Prem-me les mans, besa'm els ulls. Deslliura't i siguem un per l'altre. Un cop més. Per darrer cop.

Because the night

take me now baby here as I am
pull me close, try and understand
desire is hunger is the fire I breathe
love is a banquet on which we feed

come on now try and understand
the way I feel when I'm in your hands
take my hand come undercover
they can't hurt you now,
can't hurt you now, can't hurt you now
because the night belongs to lovers
because the night belongs to lust
because the night belongs to lovers
because the night belongs to us

have I doubt when I'm alone
love is a ring, the telephone
love is an angel disguised as lust
here in our bed until the morning comes
come on now try and understand
the way I feel under your command
take my hand as the sun descends
they can't touch you now,
can't touch you now, can't touch you now
because the night belongs to lovers ...

with love we sleep
with doubt the vicious circle
turn and burns
without you I cannot live
forgive, the yearning burning
I believe it's time, too real to feel
so touch me now, touch me now, touch me now
because the night belongs to lovers ...

because tonight there are two lovers
if we believe in the night we trust
because tonight there are two lovers ...
