Because of the rain?

Tengo muchas canciones favoritas que no tengo la menor idea de lo que dicen -- de cierta medida la música y el ritmo transmiten el sentimiento adecuado, pero mi cerebro nunca descifra las palabras. Mi teoría es que mi aprendizaje es visual, por lo tanto, si no lo veo escrito, no lo entiendo.

He aquí una canción que me acaba de electrificar el corazón. Cielos. ¿Será que la melancolía de Seattle no ayuda? Pero creo que no es sólo la lluvia.




Northern Lad
Tori Amos

Had a northern lad
Well not exactly had
He moved like the sunset
God who painted that

First he love my accent
How his knees could bend
I thought we'd be ok
Me and my molasses

But I feel someting is wrong
But I fell this cake just isn't done
Don't say that you Don't 
And if you could see me now
Said if you could see me now

Girls you've got to know
When it's time to turn the page
When you're only wet
Because of the rain

He don't show much these days
It's gets so fucking cold
I loved his secret places
But I can't go anymore

"you change like sugar cane"
Says me northern lad
I guess you go too far
When pianos try to be guitars

I feel the west in you 
And I feel it falling apart too
Don't say that you Don't
And if you could see me now
Said if you could see me now

Girls you've got to know
When it's time to turn the page
When you're only wet
Because of the rain
When you're only wet
Because of the rain
