Back (and fall)

Mr. Tamburine Man

Tribute to a great songwriter. The Boxer. 


The Boxer

A song 'bout a Neverland [which will never exist]. 

UTHOPY

Lonely road, lonely road,
Where did you bring me on?
On the dusty side of my soul.
A match I’ve won,
A match I’ve lost
But I still stay up strong
And my footsteps aren’t in fault.
Pouring rain 
And just besides me 
An open magazine 
Lying down the streets,
Lying down the streets 
Guess I’m tougher than this one
But I know me. 

“That’s enough” he said, “that’s enough”,
“Why should I smile again?
 with those hard rocks o’er my neck”.
Share this night,
Share this sight,
‘Cause I’m looking through your eyes,
and you’re going out like a light. 
And pouring rain, 
Drops dig up my face.
There’s a wreck near me,
Lying down the street,
Lying down the street. 
Wish I’m harder than this one
But I know me. 

Sometimes the world is on your shoulders
Sometimes you wish to fly guided by the southern breeze.
 In this lonely road,
 While pouring rains again,
Wash my sins.

Lonely road, lonely road
Where did you bring me on?
Trough the dusty eye of my soul?
Pouring rain, pouring rain,
Would you wash me again?
‘Cause I’m dirty of sins today.

 And through those lands
Sun breaks my hands
And blood blends my pain
And blood blends my pain,
In solitary roads
And pouring rain.

MUSIC AND LYRICS: Manfredi Montanari


Lonely Road And Pouring Rain

Cover of mr. Cohen -not  Jeff Buckley, you fucking teens- recorded with my iphone, not high quality sound but better than nothing.. 

Hallelujah

It's a song I've written a couple of years ago. It talks about a square in Rome (piazza Mattei). Wish you shall see it. 

Turtles

Cover of the traditional British (I would say Mersey Side's) song. Made famous by the Fab Four, unfamous by me.
