Canciones por aquí... (I)


Hola, hoy os traigo una nueva sección. ¿Que por qué? Pues porque, de momento, no se me ocurre nada nuevo para Palabras de una historia y quiero seguir haciéndoos llegar algo de música. Y por eso, hoy os presento... * redoble de tambores*

Canciones por aquí...

Para empezar la sección, traigo unas canciones que tienen ya unos añitos, pero que, oye, a mí me gustan. A ver qué os parecen. Son Iris y Better Days, ambas de Goo Goo Dolls.

Iris


And I'd give up forever to touch you 
Cuz I know that you feel me somehow 
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be 
And I don't want to go home right now 

And all I can taste is this moment 
And all I can breathe is your life 
Cuz sooner or later it's over 
I just don't want to miss you tonight 

And I don't want the world to see me 
Cuz I don't think that they'd understand 
When everything's made to be broken 
I just want you to know who I am 

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming 
Or the moment of truth in your lies 
When everything feels like the movies 
Yeah, you'd bleed just to know you're alive 

And I don't want the world to see me 
Cuz I don't think that they'd understand 
When everything's made to be broken 
I just want you to know who I am 

And I don't want the world to see me 
Cuz I don't think that they'd understand 
When everything's made to be broken 
I just want you to know who I am 

I just want you to know who I am 
I just want you to know who I am 
I just want you to know who I am

Better Days


And you ask me what I want this year 
And I try to make this kind and clear 
Just a chance that maybe we´ll find better days 
Cuz I don´t need boxes wrapped in strings 
And desire and love and empty things 
Just a chance that maybe we´ll find better days 

So take these words 
And sing out loud 
Cuz everyone is forgiven now 
Cuz tonight´s the night the world begins again 

And it´s someplace simple where we could live 
And something only you can give 
And thats faith and trust and peace while we´re alive 
And the one poor child that saved this world 
And there´s 10 million more who probably could 
If we all just stopped and said a prayer for them 

So take these words 
And sing out loud 
Cuz everyone is forgiven now 
Cuz tonight´s the night the world begins again 

I wish everyone was loved tonight 
And somehow stop this endless fight 
Just a chance that maybe we´ll find better days 

So take these words 
And sing out loud 
Cuz everyone is forgiven now 
Cuz tonight´s the night the world begins again 
Cuz tonight´s the night the world begins again

La primera vez que escuché una canción de este grupo fue Iris, en una colaboración con Avril Lavigne, pero yo no sabía de quién era. Tiempo después la vi en MTV (una de las cuatro veces que me ha servido para algo... vamos, cuando pillo videoclips) y, a partir de ahí, busqué más canciones del grupo.

¿Qué opináis de estas dos?
