Aqualung – Glimmer

Aqualung es el nombre en clave de Matt Hales, un cantautor inglés que ya desde los 12 años sabía que se quería dedicar a esto del silencio.

Este rayo de música está dentro de un álbum imprescindible: Memory Man (2007). El hombre-escafandra, junto a su mujer y su hermano, crea un sonido elegante acompañado de grandes letras.

Me encanta la pasión que le pone a la parte del: Everyday, everyday, living my life like it’s over. Like it’s over and deep underground.. Y más en días como el de hoy…

Letra:

I know that I was lost
And I know that it was too too hard
And although it isn’t much
I give you all I have.

There’s a mirror in the old place
A place where we would stand
And wonder at our sweet sweet selves
Smiling hand in hand
This wasn’t what we planned.

[estribillo]
Though the night has fallen
I close my eyes and imagine
A tiny glimmer flickering on the horizon.

It takes time to get it right
Takes no time to get it wrong.
I can’t believe I didn’t see
The ground was caving in

Oh, can we just start again?

[estribillo]

Everyday, everyday
Living my life like it’s over
Like it’s over and deep underground.

Little look, little smile
Flick the switch and it’s over
Like it’s lost and can never be found.

But maybe there’s a tiny glow
That won’t die and won’t leave us alone
Star shining. The sun is rising.

There’s a tiny glimmer
flickering on the horizon.
Can you see it? Can you see it there?
Can you see it? Can you see it there’s
A tiny glimmer flickering on the horizon.

It takes time to get it right.
