Louise, Remember me?
Hoy he visto a alguien. Ha pasado mucho tiempo desde la última vez. No le he dicho nada. Y he recordado una vieja canción de Human League: Louise. Ahora la estoy escuchando.
Va por todas las Louise
When he saw her getting of the bus
It seemed to wipe away the years
Her face was older, just a little rough
But her eyes were still so clear
He drank his coffee and he hurried out
Across before she walked away
Then he approached her like a little child
Too scared for what he had to say
"hello, Louise,
Remember me?
Now should we part
Or stay awhile?
As if we were still lovers"
She took a moment just to recognise the man shed known so well before
And as he started to apologise
Lose any bitterness she bore
She gently put her finger on his lips
To let him know she understood
And with her suitcase standing on the floor
Embraced him like a lover would
He told Louise
"you look so good
Its just you see
You make me feel
As if we were still lovers"
Its not always true that time heals all wounds
There are wounds that you dont wanna heal
The memories of something really good
Something truly real, that you never found again
And though they talked for just a little time
Before she said she had to go
He saw the meeting as a tiny sign
That told him all he had to know
And so Louise
Waved from the bus
And as she left
She gave that smile
As if they were still lovers

Ahora, después de que tú has puesto el dedo en la yaga (eso si, con delicadeza) no queda más remedio ;-)
A veces las cosas son más complicadas (sobre todo las mías ;-) que lo que parecen. Tal vez el momento no acompañaba, ni por su momento ni por el mío. Tal vez pensé que sería mejor no decir nada que no decir lo que uno quisiera decir. Tal vez pensé que en un futuro habría otro momento. O tal vez tú tengas razón.
Tal vez tenga que pensarlo

Habrás comprobado que cuando publicas alguna canción, no opino, y no es porque no quiera, pero es que las canciones suelen expresar a las mil maravillas lo que yo, o cualquier otro podría comentar, así que por no estropear el post...
Pero en ésta, en concreto, me ha llamado la atención tu comentario inicial, -fiel a mis palabras, no voy a comentar la canción-, encuentras una persona que hace tiempo que no ves, y no le dices nada...
Curioso, cuando menos, no? Temor a los cambios? A que el recuerdo que guardas de esa persona se difumine?
