"Wot´s... uh the Deal" ("cause i'm the man on the outside looking in", parte 2)

Heaven sent the promised land
Looks alright from where i stand
Cause i'm the man on the outside looking in

Waiting on the first step
Show where the key is kept
Point me down the right line because it's time

To let me in from the cold
Turn my lead into gold
Cause there's chill wind blowing in my soul
And i think i'm growing old...

Flash the red is wots...uh the deal
Got to make to the next meal
Try to keep up with the turning of the wheel.

Mile after mile
Stone after stone
Turn to speak but you're alone
Million mile from home you're on your own

So let me in from the cold
Turn my lead into gold
Cause there's chill wind blowing in my soul
And i think i'm growing old...

Fire bright by candlelight
And her by my side
And if she prefers we will never stir again

Someone said the promised land
And i grabbed it with both hands
Now i'm the man on the inside looking out

Hear me shout "come on in,
What's the news and where you been?"
Cause there's no wind left in my soul
And i've grown old...

("Wot´s... uh the Deal" - R. Waters/D. Gilmour)

Passei a manhã escutando essa música. Depois coloquei novamente na vitrola no final da tarde. Recoloquei pra fazer a janta. E finalmente, estou escutando nesse exato momento pra postar no blog.

Dessas canções "menores" que grandes bandas fazem. E claro, que depois de você ter escutado algumas vezes e não ter dado bola, você a pega em um dia deprê e começa a reavaliar com mais cuidado, apreciando as nuances. E eis que essa música se torna uma das suas favoritas de todos os tempos.
